Global Battery Energy Storage Market Trends, Forecast Report 2025-2037
Battery Energy Storage Market size is projected to increase from USD 20.36 billion to USD 83.36 billion, witnessing a CAGR of over 12.2% during the forecast period, from 2025 to 2037. In the year 2025, the industry size of battery energy storage is evaluated at USD 22.36 billion.
Increasing investments in solar and wind power, creating intermittent energy generation patterns, and substantial transition towards low-carbon energy generation solutions will contribute to a substantial expansion of industry size. In 2022, global investment in battery storage was over USD 20 billion with most investments concentrated on grid-wide deployment, representing almost 65% of overall expenditure.
The growth of electric vehicles (EVs) has created a demand for charging infrastructure and battery energy storage solutions. Electric car sales have more than tripled in three years, from roughly 4% in 2020 to 14% in 2022. EV sales are predicted to remain strong through 2023. Over 2.3 million electric vehicles were sold in the first quarter, representing a 25% increase over the same period last year.
Battery Energy Storage Sector: Growth Drivers and Challenges
Growth Drivers
- Reduced Emissions - Battery energy storage systems contribute to reduced greenhouse gas emissions by enabling greater integration of renewable energy sources and reducing the need for fossil fuel-based peaking power plants. To meet the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030, batteries are the fastest-growing storage technology.
- Government Policies - Many governments around the world are implementing policies and incentives to promote the transition to clean energy sources and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Battery energy storage is often a key component of these initiatives, further driving market growth
- Technological Advancements- The developments in battery technology are leading to improvements in energy density, cycle life, security, and cost-effectiveness. As batteries become more efficient and affordable, adopting energy storage systems is likely to accelerate the market for battery energy storage. In research conducted by our analysts, over the next five years, capacity for energy storage worldwide is expected to grow by 55 % and reach 260 GW in 2026.
Challenges
- High Cost of Integration -Battery energy storage systems can be expensive to install, with the cost of batteries being a significant portion of the overall system cost. While costs have been decreasing over the years, further reductions are needed to make these systems more economically viable, especially for large-scale applications
- Limited Energy Density
- Lack of Standardization

Battery Energy Storage Segmentation
Battery Type (Lithium-Ion Battery, Lead-Acid Battery, Flow Battery)
The lithium-ion battery segment share in the battery energy storage market is poised to cross 58% by 2037. The increasing deployment of new high-capacity grid infrastructure, as well as continual developments in Li-ion BESS devices, will fuel the market expansion. The primary benefit of Li-ion batteries is their high specific energy, which can reach up to 250 kWh/kg for commercially accessible products. Furthermore, multiple companies are investing in developing operational capabilities of various types, such as vanadium redox (VRB) flow batteries, to meet the growing demand across a wide range of applications.
Application (Commercial, Residential, Utility)
Utility segment is anticipated to have the largest share of the battery energy storage market through 2037, due to growing electrification attempts to power far-flung and isolated areas. The establishment of new cutting-edge commercial and industrial infrastructures as well as the rising demand for energy security across all verticals are further contributing to the expectation that the non-residential segment would expand gradually.
