Energy Storage Outlook

The global power mix has reached a critical point, and Rystad Energy expects a peak in fossil fuels in the power sector to be imminent, with a structural shift ahead of the industry. While power demand is expected to continue to see strong growth in 2025 and beyond, the growth rate of low-carbon energy sources is now close to covering the entire demand increase.
Global installed energy storage is on a steep upward trajectory. From just under 0.5 terawatts (TW) in 2024, total capacity is expected to rise ninefold to over 4 TW by 2040, driven by battery energy storage systems (BESS). Last year saw a record-breaking 200 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of new BESS projects coming online, a growth rate of 80%.
