Growth Opportunities in the Battery Energy Storage Systems Industry
Advanced Digital Technologies are Driving Transformational Growth for Front- and Behind-the-meter Applications
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are crucial in enabling the energy transition. Their deployment is essential to providing electricity systems' flexibility to support higher electrification, relying primarily on variable renewable energy (RE) sources. At the behind-the-meter (BTM) level, batteries are also increasingly recognized as a critical technology for end users to maximize on-site RE generation, manage energy demand more efficiently, control costs, and reduce carbon footprint.
BESSs have entered a period of accelerated growth. Global annual deployments are set to expand at a 30.5% CAGR from 2023 to 2035, reaching 240.63 GW with 1.69 TW of cumulative capacity. Capacity deployments will be led by grid-scale batteries, accounting for between 70-80% of new capacity. While short-mid opportunities remain concentrated in China, North America, and Europe, by 2035, India and South Asia; East Asia; Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific; and Latin America will have become attractive destinations for BESS investments.
The solar and battery low-price scenario, the push for domestic content, electric mobility, and higher transparency on ESGs are injecting extra dynamism into the market and new opportunities for differentiation. As the industry matures and batteries prove to be the right fit for a wide range of applications, the focus is on increasing efficiency, profitability, and sustainability. Numerous AI and analytics-based solutions are transforming the market, bringing gains in battery performance, manufacturing efficiency, trading, energy optimization, and circularity.
This Frost & Sullivan analysis provides a regional-level forecast and examination of how BESS capacity and investments will evolve by 2035 split by end-user segment. It discusses the main drivers and trends in supply, technology, business models, and use cases. In addition, it highlights growth opportunities for industry participants.
