Do investors underestimate the value of energy storage?
While energy storage is already being deployed to support grids across major power markets, new McKinsey analysis suggests investors often underestimate the value of energy storage in their business cases.
Can energy storage save you money?
If you have a renewable electricity generator like solar panels or a wind turbine, installing energy storage will save you money on your electricity bills. You need to weigh the potential savings against the cost of installation and how long the battery will last.
Should energy storage be undervalued?
The revenue potential of energy storage is often undervalued. Investors could adjust their evaluation approach to get a true estimate—improving profitability and supporting sustainability goals.
