How much investment is needed for stationary energy storage?

According to BloombergNEF (BNEF), more than $262 billion of investment will be needed for stationary energy storage by 2030. BNEF's 2021 Global Energy Storage Outlook projects significant growth in this sector, with Yayoi Sekine, the firm’s head of decentralized energy, stating that 'this is the energy storage decade'.

Are energy storage projects a good investment?

The other advantage is the US federal government’s generous subsidy regime. Under the Inflation Reduction Act, utility-scale energy storage projects can access investment tax credits worth around one-third of capex if construction begins by the end of 2024.

Is trading a big revenue opportunity for energy storage?

"We don’t, as yet, see trading as a big revenue opportunity for energy storage – it is driven by grid balancing.” In Texas, increasingly extreme weather events create opportunities in wholesale power markets as prices spike in line with fluctuations in supply and demand.

Why do we need a back-up power station?

As the country comes to rely on renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, reliable sources of back-up power will be needed for days without a strong breeze or adequate sunshine. In the recent past, gas or coal-fired power stations were responsible for grid-balancing activities.

How can retail investors benefit from the battery boom?

There are currently a handful of ways for UK-based retail investors to gain exposure to this prospective battery boom. Smart Metering Systems (SMS) derived around 12 per cent of cash profits (Ebitda) from its battery storage assets last year, a proportion that's likely to grow in the future.

How many GW of battery storage will the UK have?

By the end of the decade, the consultancy Rystad Energy predicts that the UK will have some 24 gigawatts (GW) of battery storage installed – with enough energy in reserve to power 18mn homes for a year.
