According to reports, market research firm IHS predicted in a newly published research report that the global energy storage market will grow as consumers and businesses use energy storage batteries to make up for the shortcomings of rooftop solar cells and other renewable energy systems. double.

       IHS predicts that in the next 10 years, lithium-ion batteries will become the mainstream energy storage technology, accounting for more than 80% of the global energy storage market by 2025. This year alone, the global energy storage market will double, with capacity growing from 1.4 million kWh in 2015 to 2.9 million kWh. According to IHS forecast, by 2025, the capacity of global grid-connected energy storage systems will surge to 21 million kilowatts.

       "In recent years, energy storage systems have grown in tandem with solar photovoltaic systems, sparking interest in multiple industries, including automakers, large Recent mergers and acquisitions between oil and gas companies, as well as traditional power plants, show this."

        According to Computerworld, IHS predicts that the United States and Japan will be the largest energy storage markets in the next 10 years, accounting for one-third of the market revenue of $50 billion (about 332.6 billion yuan). Australia and Japan will account for more than 5% of installed power generation capacity by 2025, underscoring the growing importance of energy storage for grid stability, renewable energy integration and energy management. “The U.S. and Japan are the market leaders for energy storage systems, but, as battery costs continue to fall, energy storage systems are also being used in South Africa, Kenya, the Philippines and other countries,” Bust said.
        Companies such as Tesla attach great importance to the application of lithium-ion batteries in the field of all-electric vehicles and energy storage systems. This week, Tesla announced the start of production of a $5 billion (about 33.3 billion yuan) super battery factory-although it is only 14% complete. By 2018, the Gigafactory will be able to produce enough batteries to allow Tesla to increase electric vehicle production to about 500,000 vehicles a year. Tesla plans to launch its lowest-priced electric car, the Model 3, around 2018.

             Energy storage batteries to households and businesses, the market will double this year

       Tesla CEO Elon Musk (Elon Musk) predicts that by 2020, the total power of batteries produced by the Gigafactory will reach 35 million kilowatts, and the goal is to reduce the cost of each kilowatt-hour of battery capacity by more than 30% through economies of scale. %. Tesla currently sells home and commercial lithium-ion battery energy storage systems. This week, Tesla unveiled the second part of its "grand plan," which involves "seamlessly" merging rooftop solar cells with battery storage. According to Computerworld, Navigant Research, a market research firm, said in a research report released last year that, in fact, without battery energy storage systems, the US grid would collapse.

Energy storage batteries to households and businesses, the market will double this year

       As the number of solar cells installed on the roofs of businesses and homes continues to grow, the U.S. grid system has taken on a burden they didn't expect: two-way power transmission. The grid needs to transmit electricity to consumers, and consumers who have installed solar cells can transmit electricity to the grid.

     "There is no grid in the world that was designed for this," said Anise Dehamna, principal analyst at Navigant Research. "All grids are designed for non-two-way transmission of electricity -- from grid to grid. end-user transmission.”
