The US battery energy storage system market size is projected to reach US$ 21.21 billion by 2031 from US$ 6.27 billion in 2023. The market is expected to register a CAGR of 16.5% during 2023-2031.
Mounting Energy Demand is Boosting the US Battery Energy Storage System Market
Rising population and growing urbanization are a few factors steering the Use of energy in the US. As per the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), US energy consumption is anticipated to grow through 2050 owing to economic and population growth. EIA also mentioned that US electricity end-use consumption was about 3.2% higher in 2022 than in 2021. Battery energy storage has the potential application as energy storage to be used 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 boosting the application of battery energy storage. 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. Thus, the increase in energy demand fuels the development of the battery energy storage system market in the US.
In the US, the manufacturers must offer in-demand products such as advanced Li-ion battery energy storage systems products and invest in the research and development of high energy density batteries such as sulfur-based batteries. In addition, the new entrants operating in the market may face challenges in yield expansion as compared to established or experienced manufacturers in the country. Moreover, factors that are responsible for high-quality product manufacturing include technical expertise, government incentives, raw material costs, and others. The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) production incentives offered by the government may reduce costs by more than 40% if the battery manufacturers or giga factories can get raw materials at lower prices and improve the production yield to 90%. In that case, IRA will help in reducing the battery cost to the Chinese product levels.
Vehicle electrification plays an important role in the carbon emission reduction goals set by the US. In general, vehicle electrification focuses on the electrically powered powertrain and its auxiliary systems, such as onboard and offboard charging systems and wireless power transmission. Vehicle electrification also includes many aspects of vehicle functions present in a traditional non-electric vehicle, including electronic power steering, electronic stability program, electronic traction control, intelligent lighting system, intelligent electromagnetic suspension, four-wheel drive, airbag delivery system, and others. The rise in demand and deployment of electric vehicles (EVs) across the US propels the requirement for vehicle charging infrastructure or electric vehicle charging stations. Hence, the power and transport sectors are expected to demand BESS to charge electric vehicles and enable a greater shift toward decarbonization of the two sectors in the coming years.
