Energy storage installations around the world will multiply exponentially, from a modest 9GW/17GWh deployed as of 2018 to 1,095GW/2,850GWh by 2040, according to the latest forecast from research company BloombergNEF (BNEF). This is a new era of dispatchable renewables, based on new contract structures between developer and grid.

We see $548 billion being invested in battery capacity by 2050, two thirds of that at the grid level and one third installed behind-the-meter by households and businesses. The levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) from new PV plants is forecast to fall a further 71% by 2050, while that for onshore wind drops by a further 58%.

Anticipated demand from the auto industry—as well as solar-panel manufacturing and data centers—is leading utilities to forecast single-digit percentage growth every year through the end of the decade in some regions, according to report. That’s a big change considering that demand has stayed flat—or declined—in most of the U.S.

We need an interactive grid to make this work. We have to change the regulatory requirements to recognize the investments in the smart grid that have to be made. Right now we are operating with a grid that was not adequate at middle of the last century. Gasoline is too cheap. The challenge is demand creation.

To compensate for the increased amounts of these inherently–variable sources of electricity, the power grid requires additional flexibility to manage fluctuations in generation. They used hourly data for wind and load and assumed perfect information (no forecast error) to focus on capacity expansion and unit commitment decisions.
