Prices: Both lithium-ion battery pack and energy storage system prices are expected to fall again in 2024. Rapid growth of battery manufacturing has outpaced demand, which is leading to significant downward pricing pressure as battery makers try to recoup investment and reduce losses tied to underutilization of their plants.
Where a profitable application of energy storage requires saving of costs or deferral of investments, direct mechanisms, such as subsidies and rebates, will be effective. For applications dependent on price arbitrage, the existence and access to variable market prices are essential.
Investment in energy storage can enable them to meet the contracted amount of electricity more accurately and avoid penalties charged for deviations. Revenue streams are decisive to distinguish business models when one application applies to the same market role multiple times.
Battery overproduction and overcapacity will shape market dynamics of the energy storage sector in 2024, pressuring prices and providing headwinds for stationary energy storage deployments. This report highlights the most noteworthy developments we expect in the energy storage industry this year.
Although electricity storage technologies could provide useful flexibility to modern power systems with substantial shares of power generation from intermittent renewables, investment opportunities and their profitability have remained ambiguous.
In summary, selling energy back to the grid can be complicated and expensive. However, there are other options available to commercial and residential consumers that are looking to reduce energy costs. Our team understands the electricity grids in the U.S. and can help you navigate selling energy back to the grid.
