Further, the role of battery energy storage systems in energy transitions is expected to be a key future trend in the market from 2025 to 2031.
Energy producers, transmission system operators, storage providers, and end users are stakeholders involved in the ecosystem of battery energy storage systems. Sources used to generate energy include natural gas, fossil fuels, and renewable resources (such as wind and solar). Power generation is followed by the process of transmission and storage. The energy storage process involves large-scale facilities and distributed power or energy storage systems. The final step consists of distributing the stored energy to end users or major application areas. End users of battery energy storage systems include power plants, commercial, residential, and utility sectors.
Battery Energy Storage System Market Overview
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) strengthen grid resilience and reliability. Moreover, the system eases electricity costs through arbitrage, mitigating the risk of curtailment by providing backup power. These benefits attract developers and governments in regions such as North America, Europe, and APAC, specifically in the US, Germany, the UK, Italy, China, India, Japan, and South Korea, to focus more on battery energy storage infrastructure. For example, state governments are increasingly incentivizing the integration of energy storage with solar. In the US, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) offers tax credits for installing solar-plus-storage systems and standalone battery energy storage systems, which benefits the battery energy storage system market in the country.
The government of India introduced the Production Linked Incentive scheme for Advanced Chemistry Cell in May 2021 with the aim of decreasing dependency on imported cells and promoting industrial development in the country. The scheme seeks to increase India's manufacturing capacities in the energy storage segment through financial incentives. The government of India authorized a Viability Gap Funding (VGF) Scheme for setting up 4,000 MWh of battery energy storage system in 2023. The scheme has provision for VGF to the extent of up to ~40% of capital expenditure for BESS, which will bring down the expense of electricity obtained from BESS.

Battery Energy Storage System Market Drivers and Opportunities
Mounting Demand for Energy Favors Battery Energy Storage System Market
Rising population and growing urbanization are a few factors steering the use of energy globally, specifically in countries such as the US, China, India, and Japan. As per the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), US energy consumption is anticipated to grow by 2050 owing to economic and population growth. EIA also reported that US electricity end-use consumption was ~3.2% higher in 2022 than in 2021. It further predicted that power consumption would rise by 0.7% in 2025. Battery energy storage has the potential application in times of crisis or in remote or distant locations where power networks are not available. Furthermore, due to the increasing energy uncertainties worldwide, the US government is incentivizing the application of battery energy storage systems. For instance, in May 2024, Plus Power secured a US$ 82 million tax equity investment from bank Morgan Stanley for the Arizona-based 90 MW/360 MWh Superstition BESS project, which is anticipated to be operational in June 2024. In February 2024, RWE completed the construction of three new battery energy storage systems, totaling 190 MW (361 MWh), in Texas and Arizona.
The growing energy demand in Canada is also boosting the growth of the battery energy storage market. For instance, SolarBank Corporation is planning to commence the construction of its first battery energy storage system project in Ontario in the second half of February 2025. The Royal Bank of Canada is set to finance the construction of this 4.99 MW BESS Project with the provision of US$ 25.8 million in funds.
Growing Investments in Renewable Power Generation to Generate Growth Opportunities
The US government is focusing on reducing its carbon footprints, driving a transition toward clean energy across the country. As a result, the government is encouraging investments in green energy production. Power generation using fossil fuels is a key contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that lead to climate change. The utilization of solar and wind energy is increasing due to rising focus on using clean and green energy, growing climate change concerns, and government initiatives toward encouraging the usage of renewable energy across the US. By 2030, the US government targets to decrease net GHG emissions by ~50–52% compared to 2005 levels and achieve net zero emissions by 2050. Thus, rising concerns regarding greenhouse gas emissions are urging investments in renewable power generation, which is anticipated to offer lucrative opportunities for the development of the battery energy storage system market over the forecast period.
The governments of different countries across Asia Pacific have targeted to increase renewable power generation installations. In 2023, the government of India released a notification of bids for 50 GW of renewable energy capacity annually for the next 5 years to reach a target of 300 GW by the end of 2030. Similarly, the government of Japan targets to increase its offshore wind capacity from 0.14 GW in 2022 to 10 GW by the end of 2030. Further, China is 6 years ahead of its 2030 renewable energy targets by completing installations of these systems in 2023. Thus, growing investments in renewable power generation to generate growth opportunities in the battery energy storage systems market during the forecast period.
