Batteries Capable of Storing Power Seen As Big as Rooftop Solar Panels in 12 Years

摘要

Barteries capable of storing power at utility scale will be as widespread in 12 years as rooftop solar panels are now, revolutionizing the way consumers use energy. That's the the conclusion of Bloomberg New Energy Finance, which forecasts the battery market may be valued at $250 billion or more by 2040. It expects 25 giga-watts of the devices to be deployed by 2028, about the size of the small-scale photovoltaic industry now.
