The global pipeline of energy storage projects is growing rapidly across a variety of market segments, including distributed, grid-scale, off-grid and second-life projects.

From increasing solar self-consumption, reducing consumption peaks, providing flexibility to the electricity system, to deferring costly investments in transmission and distribution infrastructure, the range of applications which energy storage devices can provide is constantly evolving.

To build a robust business case, however, most storage facilities need to provide several services.
