DRIVING FACTORS

"Rising renewables drive demand for stable, efficient energy storage solutions"

There are various factors that may have contributed to the growth of the ESS market; a key factor being the realization of the need for a reliable energy storage system that is instrumental in providing reliable energy to the communities. More solar and wind energy in consumption means that there is a need to store excess power for the periods of high demand or when there is inadequate production of solar or wind energy. Energy storage systems enhance reliability of the electricity distribution network, reduce the demand of fossil energy and supervise supply volatility. The state of the art batteries used in these systems are also getting better and cheaper over time.

"Government incentives drive ESS adoption, fostering sustainability and market growth"

Regarding the last point, there are numerous factors that contribute to the growth of the ESS market, one of which is government support. Energy storage mostly receives subsidies and tax credits with an aim of making it easy for business entities and citizens to invest on the various technologies. Such policies are meant for reducing emissions, securing energy supply and encouraging new paths to use green energy sources. Thus, the government contributes to the faster development of energy storage solutions market by making it easier and more attractive to invest in them.

RESTRAINING FACTOR

"High costs and regulations limit growth in energy storage solutions"

Risk factors in the ESS market include high capital costs, i. e. , initially, legal frameworks, and short cycles. These things decelerate the rate at which the market expands, when in fact, there is an even higher demand for efficient energy storage systems. Challenges in accessing the material, as well as the manner in which they are transported, also reduces the potential capacity for the market’s expansion in the strategic planning of various firms.
