The battery energy storage systems industry has witnessed a higher inflow of investments in the last few years and is expected to continue this trend in the future. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), investments in energy storage exceeded USD 20 billion in 2022.
Battery storage projects without long-term offtake contracts, which are tied into the wholesale power grid, offer less revenue certainty compared to what is typically required by lenders and tax equity investors. Michael McNair, President of Yes Energy, an energy research and modeling company, agrees.
Battery overproduction and overcapacity will shape market dynamics of the energy storage sector in 2024, pressuring prices and providing headwinds for stationary energy storage deployments. This report highlights the most noteworthy developments we expect in the energy storage industry this year.
105 VC investors participated in battery storage deals in 2020, compared to 78 in 2019. Breakthrough Energy Ventures was the top investor in this sector in 2020.
Battery energy storage originally offered a compelling return on investment from grid revenue services alone. However, changes to these schemes and the payments on offer have made it unlikely for grid revenue to provide a return on investment alone, outside of major, grid-scale developments.
Don’t let inexperience with battery energy storage keep you in the dark. With standalone battery energy storage, you spend less and get more. You lock up less land and do it where the wholesale nodal energy prices are much more attractive. You invest dollars in targeted areas that are more volatile.
