Asia Pacific LithiumIon Stationary Battery Storage Market

Asia Pacific Lithium-Ion Stationary Battery Storage Market Size

The Asia Pacific lithium-ion stationary battery storage market size was at USD 82.3 billion in 2024 and  is expected to reach 1.37 triillion by 2034, growing at a CAGR of 30.3% from 2025 to 2034. The growing integration of renewable energy sources, including wind and solar, necessitates the development of energy storage solutions for intermittency issues. Battery storage systems are vital in harmonizing supply equilibrium and energy consumption.

China and Japan are spearheading the promotion and adoption of energy storage systems (ESS) through government policies. For instance, the Japanese government plans to make solar panel installation compulsory on new houses beginning 2025. Japan is also developing virtual power plants (VPPs) that aim to incorporate household batteries into the electricity grid.

China has invested over USD 13.9 billion in energy storage, leading to a nearly fourfold increase in capacity in 2023 alone. Declining market price of Li-ion batteries coupled with long-term investment, signifies optimism for affordable energy storage solutions. For reference, the average price of Li-ion iron phosphate (LFP) cells was USD 100/kWh in 2023. This decline in price allows energy storage systems to be economically and commercially appealing to households and businesses. Many private firms are currently funding large battery storage system projects. For illustration, in Queensland, Australia, Akaysha Energy, with BlackRock's backing, is building a USD 200 million battery project designed to power 300,000 homes.

Asia Pacific Lithium-Ion Stationary Battery Storage Market Trends

Advancements in battery technology, such as the development of vanadium redox flow batteries, are enhancing the performance and efficiency of energy storage systems. For illustration, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) in Japan has reported investments in research and development to lower the cost of flow batteries, aiming to reduce energy storage costs to below JPY 23,000 (approximately USD 150) per kilowatt-hour by 2030.

A number of countries within this region are modernizing their related power infrastructure to improve power flow management and also integration of renewables. This involves deployment of advanced energy storage technologies that increase the operability of the grid. For reference, India is spending USD 4 billion under its Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) to provide advanced technological systems and enhance grid frameworks, including energy storage systems (ESS).

In addition, the enhancement of electric vehicles coupled with the requirement for reliable power in off-grid and rural areas are other factors driving battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the area. For illustration, the International Energy Agency (IEA) claims that the Asia-Pacific region contributed more than 45% of global battery energy storage installations in 2023 as a result of substantial investment in renewable energy projects and favorable government policies. All these factors are consolidating the APAC region’s position as a key energy storage hub in the world.

Increasing deployments of rooftop solar systems aid the demand for BTM battery storage solutions to be used efficiently.
  
• Off-grid battery storage systems are being deployed in rural areas and remote regions where there is no access to the grid. These systems are frequently used in conjunction with renewable energy such as solar to guarantee reliable power availability.
  
• As the grid services segment is growing at a remarkable rate, forecasts are showing tremendous growth potential in the market in the next few years. All these factors are responsible for the grid services segment undergoing sustained growth that is supporting further growth in other areas of the market. These changes will result in various opportunities throughout and across different industries.
  

• China lithium-ion stationary battery storage industry has reached a value of USD 15.3 billion, USD 41.3 billion, and USD 68.9 billion in 2022, 2023, and 2024. China’s robust manufacturing capabilities, coupled with the presence of major battery producers including BYD and CATL, has most certainly strengthened the supply chain, ensuring reliable and cost-efficient access to storage solutions. Other growth enablers include progress in lithium-ion batteries, enhanced cycle life, energy density, and decreased costs of stationary storage systems. These factors have enhanced the efficiency and affordability of residential and commercial systems, making access much easier.
  
• After the nuclear crisis in Japan, there was a shift towards decentralized and renewable energy. There is strong consumer demand for residential energy storage systems, especially in regions prone to disasters. Some local governments financially support the installation of batteries at homes with solar panels. VPP project concept at the national level consolidates home batteries for use in controlling grid power imbalances.
  
• In South Korea, the national Green New Deal includes substantial funding for the integration of renewables into ESS. Deployment and market confidence were boosted following the revision of ESS safety standards due to previous incidents. Limited domestic energy resources in Korea drive support for storage in an attempt to reduce dependence on import energy resources.
