Energy Storage Capacity, Batteries, Storage OEMs, Storage Applications, Bulk Energy Storage, Load Leveling/Peak Shifting

The energy storage industry remains diverse in the shape and structure of markets around the world. A key global trend is that the early stages of a market’s development typically include projects that are smaller and focused on single applications, often grid stability services such as frequency regulation. As markets mature, technology advances, and governments increasingly push for more renewable generation, markets are increasingly shifting towards large, utility scale energy storage deployments.

Several key factors continue to increase the global need for energy storage deployments. Expensive peaker plants that traditionally run on fossil fuels are being replaced with advanced battery energy storage systems. Distributed energy storage systems strengthen the resiliency of unstable grids. Storage opportunities allow solar and wind to continue dominating new energy capacity additions.

This Guidehouse Insights report provides a comprehensive resource of global energy storage projects. The Energy Storage Tracker 4Q23 includes a database of 6,744 energy storage projects and tracks the country, region, market segment, capacity, storage duration, status, storage OEM, applications, and storage type of each project. More than 400 new projects were added to this update. At the same time, many entries were revised as a part of a thorough quality check process to remove duplicates to maintain and enhance data quality.
