[New] Long-Duration Storage Mandates: National energy strategies, such as the Australia National Battery Strategy 2024, are establishing specific 2035 targets for stationary storage capacity.
Knowledge Sourcing Intelligence
[New] The battery storage integration segment is likely to experience the fastest CAGR of 15.3% from 2026 to 2034 due to the critical role batteries play in stabilizing intermittent renewable energy sources like solar and wind, ensuring a consistent power supply within microgrids.
Market Data Forecast
[New] Ultimately, as traditional diesel generators gradually give way to diversified alternatives, the integrated UPS-plus-energy-storage system will become the fundamental infrastructure standard.
IEEE Spectrum
[New] Across Europe, expansion of renewables-plus-storage capacity exceeding 35 GW by 2030 is reshaping energy support for low carbon building operations and manufacturing.
Whole Life Carbon
Approximately 760,000 additional power and grid workers will be needed by 2030, including 207,000 specialized transmission and distribution roles that require three to four years of training to fill.
Fortune
Transportation energy use would decrease from 27 quads in 2025 to between 21 and 25 quads in 2050, despite increasing travel demand as newer, more efficient powertrains make up a larger portion of on-road vehicles.
IER
The geopolitical supply chain risk landscape in 2026 includes tariff uncertainty, trade tensions between major economies, cybersecurity attacks targeting logistics infrastructure, and energy security concerns.

Mexico will launch new tenders for power generation and storage as it seeks to increase the share of renewables to 38% by 2030.
Industrial Info Resources
China is expanding Hainan's role as a southern LNG storage and distribution hub, part of a wider effort to strengthen energy security and reduce exposure to maritime disruptions, including shocks tied to the Strait of Hormuz and Middle East supply routes.
Fault Lines
JPMorgan projects energy storage will represent 30% of global lithium demand in 2026, rising to 36% by 2030.
Firstlinks
Global shipments of battery energy storage systems increased by 75.5%, reaching 421.2 GWh in 2025, with 600 GWh projected for 2026.
Energy Industry Review
In 2026, the world is expected to add another 353.4 GWh of energy storage capacity, driven by demand from artificial intelligence data centers.
Energy Industry Review
If the last three years were about solar panels and wind turbines, in 2026 - and the next few years - are going to be just as much about the storage systems for the energy they produce.
The Crucial Years
Drivers: Full integration into the core banking systems of the G20, XRP acting as the primary liquidity bridge for the majority of the world's CBDCs, and a massive supply squeeze as the 2030 Net Zero climate goals favor energy-efficient XRPL over Proof-of-Work systems.
KuCoin
As AI compute density continues rising globally, liquid cooling technologies are expected to become a foundational infrastructure layer supporting scalable, energy-efficient, and high-performance AI datacenter operations.
Morningstar, Inc.
Combined, solar and battery storage (which banks excess energy for use when the sun's not shining) accounted for 79% of power generation brought online in 2025 and are expected to continue to grow by 49% before the Inflation Reduction Act tax credits expire at the end of 2027.
