Researchers from MIT and Princeton University examined battery storage to determine the key drivers that impact its economic value, how that value might change

5 · Annual additions of grid-scale battery energy storage globally must rise to an average of 80 GW per year from now to 2030. Here''s why that needs to happen.

We estimate that around USD 2.8 trillion will be invested in energy in 2023. More than USD 1.7 trillion is going to clean energy, including renewable power, nuclear, grids, storage, low-emission fuels, efficiency improvements and end-use renewables and electrification.

Clean energy investment is – finally – starting to pick up and is expected to exceed USD 1.4 trillion in 2022, accounting for almost three-quarters of the growth in overall energy investment. The annual average growth rate in clean energy investment in the five years after the signature of the Paris Agreement in 2015 was just over 2%.

By our estimates, an additional $242 billion in generation, storage and transmission investment is needed to deliver the Step Change scenario in the ISP. To be clear, that''s $242 billion above current commitments. Storage accounts for about a quarter of this figure, requiring an additional $64 billion investment.

According to Aurora Energy Research''s Central outlook, total grid-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity is expected to grow sevenfold to 51GW by 2030 and 98GW by 2050.
