Lithium-ion batteries are highly efficient and flexible, making them well-suited for use in battery energy storage systems. They can store energy from solar panels during sunlight and discharge it when demand is high, providing reliable backup power for homes and businesses. Since these batteries are used for residential and commercial purposes, it is becoming affordable. The cost of lithium-ion batteries has been declining steadily in recent years, making them more cost-effective for homeowners and businesses to install. This has helped to increase the adoption of battery energy storage systems, particularly when paired with solar energy systems. Systems for storing energy using lithium-ion batteries can be scaled up or down to meet the requirements of various applications. This qualifies them for usage in utility-scale projects and in residential and commercial contexts.
The rise in capacity resulted from numerous governmental initiatives, including auctions, feed-in tariffs, net metering, and contracts for difference. From 2021 to 2022, governments of various countries made significant policies and target adjustments that affected solar PV growth. For instance, The European Commission suggested raising the 2030 renewable energy target for the union from 32% to 40% in July 2021. The REPowerEU Plan boosted the intended aim even higher, raising it to 45% in May 2022 (which would require 1 236 GW of installed renewable power, including 600 GW of solar PV). Solar PV was one of the primary technologies used to achieve these goals. Thus, growing development of solar plants in developed countries is driving the lithium-ion battery energy storage market growth.
Various companies and governments of several countries in Europe are focusing on expanding their renewable energy installation. In January 2023, Iberdrola announced that it had secured environmental approvals to build the largest solar photovoltaic (PV) plant in Europe, which will be the fifth-largest PV plant worldwide. This new 1,200-MW Fernando Pessoa solar project is in Portugal. In 2022, the company inaugurated the Tâmega pumped hydroelectric storage complex, for which an investment of ~US$ 1.63 billion (EUR 1.5 billion) was made. It is one of the largest hydroelectric storage complexes in Europe. Further, the company announced its plan to invest an additional US$ 3.26 billion (EUR 3 billion) in wind and solar energy in Portugal. Thus, the rise in new installations of wind and solar power plant in the region will further fuel the market growth.
