The lithium-ion battery segment is projected to exceed USD 356.5 billion by 2032. The continuous advancement in lithium-ion battery technology has resulted in higher energy density, improved cycle life, and enhanced overall efficiency. Innovations in battery chemistry and design are reducing degradation rates and improving thermal management, making lithium-ion batteries more reliable and cost-effective for grid-scale applications.
Based on application, the capacity firming segment is set to grow at a CAGR of more than 29.1% through 2032. The growing penetration of variable renewable energy (VRE) sources like wind and solar is driving the need for capacity firming. Battery storage systems are essential for firming up these intermittent resources, ensuring a consistent and reliable power supply to the grid.
North America stationary battery storage market is likely to exceed USD 124.7 billion by 2032. Continuous improvements in lithium-ion battery technology, including increased energy density, enhanced lifecycle performance, and superior thermal management, are propelling the adoption of grid-scale battery storage systems. Emerging technologies, such as solid-state and flow batteries, are also beginning to influence the market. The integration of renewable energy sources, primarily wind and solar, is a major driver for grid-scale battery storage in North America.
The U.S. Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Orders 841 and 2222, which aim to remove barriers for energy storage participation in wholesale markets, are particularly impactful. State-level initiatives, such as California’s Self-Generation Incentive Program (SGIP) and New York’s Energy Storage Roadmap, further encourage deployment.
