Breakdown of global battery storage systems capacity 2020-2030, by chemistry
Over the last few years, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries have emerged as the most popular lithium-ion battery chemistry in the world, surpassing the installed capacity of battery energy storage systems (BESS) containing nickel. LFP battery systems have one of the lowest energy storage costs among battery technologies, together with sodium-ion batteries, which are forecast to reach over ** percent of the installed BESS capacity by 2030.Â
