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.
Is energy storage a good investment?
The return of investment is an important metric about how attractive an investment may be. However this is an important note that energy storage usually does not generate electricity savings directly, but allows the transport or trading of electricity. This usually results in storage not having a high ROI like solar investments, for example.
What is storage NPV in terms of kWh?
The storage NPV in terms of kWh has to factor in degradation, round-trip efficiency, lifetime, and all the non-ideal factors of the battery. The combination of these factors is simply the storage discount rate. The financial NPV in financial terms has to include the storage NPV, inflation, rising energy prices, and cost of debt.
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.
While the energy storage capacity of grid batteries is still small compared to the other major form of grid storage, with 200 GW power and 9000 GWh energy storage worldwide as of 2025 according to , the battery market is catching up very fast in terms of power generation capacity as price drops.
