The residential energy storage market has seen considerable growth due to a variety of factors.
• The size of the residential energy storage market has seen a speedy expansion over the past few years. The market is projected to rise from a valuation of $0.91 billion in 2024 to $1.08 billion in 2025, indicating a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 18.9%.
Factors contributing to this historical growth include improved infrastructure, heightened embrace of solar rooftop systems among residences, an increase in both governmental and private sector investment in renewable energy production, customer desire for autonomous energy sources, and reduction in the cost of batteries.
The residential energy storage market is expected to maintain its strong growth trajectory in upcoming years.
• Fast-paced expansion is predicted in the residential energy storage market over the coming years, escalating to $1.99 billion by 2029 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 16.4%.
This anticipated growth during the forecast period can be ascribed to the surging demand for electric vehicles, the enhanced installation of solar PV modules, the growing environmental consciousness among individuals, the accelerated energy consumption in burgeoning regions, and the soaring demand for renewable energy. The forecast period will also see major trends like the escalating necessity for large-scale energy storage technologies, augmented research and development, advanced technological strides, and growing proliferation of lithium-ion technology.
The increasing need for renewable energy is projected to fuel the expansion of the residential energy storage market. Renewable energy includes power harnessed from continuously replenished natural resources such as sunlight, wind, rain, tides, and geothermal heat, presenting a sustainable and eco-friendly substitute to depleting fossil fuels. The surging call for renewable energy is due to the intention to limit the impact on climate change by moving towards eco-friendly and sustainable energy options. Renewable energy enhances residential energy storage by offering a power supply that's both renewable and intermittent. This enables homeowners to save the excess energy produced during peak generation periods for later consumption, thus improving the strength of the power grid and lessening the dependence on conventional energy sources. As an example, the Department for Energy Security and Net Zero, a UK government department, reported in December 2023 that renewable electricity production had achieved a record peak of 30.1 terawatt-hours in the third quarter of 2023, depicting a rise of 6.8% compared to the same timeframe in 2022. Consequently, the burgeoning demand for renewable energy is a significant contributor to the growth of the residential energy storage market.
