Batteries and Secure Energy Transitions World Energy Outlook Special Report

Publication Year: 2024

Author(s): International Energy Agency

Abstract:

In the energy sector, battery storage represents the most rapidly expanding renewable energy technology available. Batteries' adaptable nature enables its application in utility-scale projects, behind-the-meter storage for residences and enterprises, and in decentralized solutions such as mini-grids and solar home systems. Furthermore, declining battery costs are rapidly enhancing the competitiveness of electric vehicles and energy storage applications in the power sector.

These encompass increasing global renewable energy capacity, double the rate of energy efficiency enhancements, and shifting away from fossil fuels.

This research consolidates the most recent statistics and information on batteries globally, encompassing current industry trends and technological innovations. It provides insights and analyses on prominent markets and significant obstacles to growth. By examining the comprehensive battery ecosystem, encompassing essential minerals, production, utilization, and recycling, it reveals synergies and potential constraints across several industries. The report also emphasizes areas requiring increased focus from policymakers and industry leaders.
