Global BESS Market to Reach $105.96 Billion by 2030 as 15.8% CAGR Drives Expansion
1 articles · Updated · marketsandmarkets.com · May 30
$105.96 billion is the projected size of the global battery energy storage system market in 2030, up from $50.81 billion in 2025 as storage becomes more central to power systems.
A 15.8% CAGR is being driven by faster renewable buildout, grid modernization, rising electricity demand, and the need to stabilize intermittent solar and wind generation.
Lithium-ion batteries hold the largest revenue share, while sodium-ion is forecast to grow fastest as developers seek lower-cost, more diversified supply chains.
Utility-owned, on-grid projects and systems above 10 MWh lead adoption, reflecting heavy investment in grid balancing, peak management, renewable integration, and resilience.
Asia Pacific remains the biggest and fastest-growing region—led by China—while North America and Europe also expand on policy support, energy security goals, and decarbonization plans.
As US tariffs stall battery projects, can domestic manufacturing scale fast enough to meet America's clean energy goals?
As battery demand explodes, is a global raw material shortage inevitable, threatening the entire energy transition?
Sodium-ion batteries promise a cheaper, safer alternative. Can this new tech really dethrone the dominance of lithium-ion?
