Energy Storage Solution
Analyze the electrical energy storage landscape - from pumped hydropower to advanced battery energy storage systems - assessing demand across utility-scale, commercial and industrial, and residential markets, alongside supply dynamics and revenue opportunities
Introduction
The global transition to low-carbon power generation has elevated system flexibility to a core requirement of modern power systems. As variable renewable energy sources such as wind and solar increase their share of generation, supply must dynamically respond to demand. Energy storage systems provide this critical flexibility, enabling a smart, resilient, and low-carbon power system. Strong demand for energy storage and the rapid deployment of battery energy storage systems (BESS) are driving accelerated market growth and technological evolution.
Our energy storage solution delivers deep, country-level insights into market outlooks and required energy storage capacity. It tracks the development of energy storage projects across a broad range of technologies—from established pumped hydropower to advanced battery systems and long-duration energy storage solutions such as flow batteries and gravity-based systems in the power sector. Users can monitor battery cost trends, assess key revenue streams across power markets, and analyze the BESS value chain from manufacturing through project deployment.
Energy storage solution enables you to identify emerging markets and evaluate the revenues and profitability of BESS projects under different price scenarios. It provides detailed visibility into turnkey project costs, system components, and supplier landscapes, offering a comprehensive view of the battery energy storage supply chain. This holistic perspective supports robust risk assessment and informed decision-making, even amid evolving market conditions and regulatory uncertainty.
