What is Energy Storage pricing survey & energy storage financing study series?

Energy Storage Pricing Survey & Energy Storage Financing Study Series The Energy Storage Pricing Survey series provides the energy storage industry with a standardized system cost benchmark for energy storage systems of a range of system power and energy ratings so customers can compare prices of different technologies at different system scales.

What technologies are used in energy storage systems?

TECHNOLOGY RISKS: While lithium-ion batteries remain the most widespread technology used in energy storage systems, these systems also use hydrogen, compressed air, and other battery technologies. The storage industry is also exploring new technologies capable of providing longer-duration storage to meet different market needs.

Where will stationary energy storage be available in 2030?

The largest markets for stationary energy storage in 2030 are projected to be in North America (41.1 GWh), China (32.6 GWh), and Europe (31.2 GWh). Excluding China, Japan (2.3 GWh) and South Korea (1.2 GWh) comprise a large part of the rest of the Asian market.

What is the growth rate of stationary storage in 2030?

By 2030, annual global deployments of stationary storage (excluding PSH) is projected to exceed 300 GWh, representing a 27% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for grid-related storage and an 8% CAGR for use in industrial applications such as warehouse logistics and data centers.

What do Lenders look for in an energy storage project?

OPERATING RISKS: Lenders generally will conduct diligence to understand an energy storage project’s operating limitations and operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. As part of that process, lenders will look for an O&M agreement with an experienced operator that will ensure that their project will be managed within its operating limitations.

What is the growth rate of industrial energy storage?

The majority of the growth is due to forklifts (8% CAGR). UPS and data centers show moderate growth (4% CAGR) and telecom backup battery demand shows the lowest growth level (2% CAGR) through 2030. Figure 8. Projected global industrial energy storage deployments by application
