Global Grid Scale Battery Market Report - Market Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Outlook - Industry Trends and Forecast to 2028

The grid scale battery market is being driven by an increase in the number of grid stability ESS projects that provide ancillary services, as well as the increasing intermittency of variable renewable energy sources such as wind and solar are driving the demand for large scale battery storage systems.

Drivers:

• Grid integration of renewable energy by reducing variability
• Flattening demand peaks, thereby reducing stress on grid equipment
• Providing infrastructure support as loads increase with electric vehicle use
• Decreasing or eliminating the power fees related to short time peak loads
• Increasing demand for uninterrupted power supply in data centres, telecommunications, etc.
• Growing demand for heavy machinery in industries and others had increased the demand for battery energy storage systems.

A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges or collects electrical energy from the power plant or a grid and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services.

Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems:

• Electrochemical energy storage covers all types of secondary batteries. Electrochemical batteries convert the chemical energy contained in its active materials into electric energy by an electrochemical oxidation-reduction reverse reaction.
• They are different types of Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems:
  • Sodium batteries
  • Lead Acid batteries
  • Lithium-ion batteries
  • Flow Batteries

Applications of Battery Energy Storage Systems:

Key Barriers in the development of Battery Energy Storage Systems:

• Regulatory Barriers:
  • Lack of rules, regulations, and intensives for the development of BESS. 
  • Lack of clarity or limitations regarding battery storage across generation, transmission, and distribution.

• Market Barriers:
  • Lack of market for battery services
  • Lack of discernment in quantity and quality of services procured.

Grid Scale Battery Systems in Utilities:

Electric power generation is moving away from fossil fuels with high carbon density and adopting renewable power plants to reduce carbon footprint, which helps countries across the region to meet their Net Zero targets by 2050.

Utility-scale energy storage systems can enable a greater feed-in of renewables into the grid by storing excess generation and firming renewable energy output. On the other hand, increasing renewable energy generation by supporting energy storage helps reduce electricity prices and different transmission systems.
