In recent years a new and promising competitor has emerged: battery storage. A thorough engineering literature now exists on creating large-scale batteries, spanning sodium-sulphur, lithium ion, lead-acid, and more. But comparatively little has been written about the economics of large-scale batteries.

These utility-scale battery systems will attract investments of up to $20 billion and have enough combined energy reserves to power 18 million homes for a year, Rystad Energy analysis shows. Thanks to this rapid expansion, the UK will account for almost 9% of all global capacity installations, sitting fourth in the table behind China, the
