Core Viewpoint - The global commercial energy storage market is experiencing significant growth, with China expected to see a 55.9% increase in commercial energy storage system shipments in 2025, reaching 21.2 GWh, driven by rising electricity demand and advancements in technology [1][10]. Group 1: Market Growth and Demand - In 2024, China's commercial energy storage system shipment volume is projected to be 13.6 GWh, marking a 60% year-on-year increase [1]. - The domestic market is expected to reach 13.8 GWh in 2025, a 35.3% increase, while overseas shipments are anticipated to grow by 117.6%, reaching 7.4 GWh [10]. - The CR10 concentration in the commercial energy storage sector is 68%, indicating a relatively low industry concentration due to the rapid development and numerous players in the emerging market [7]. Group 2: Product Development and Pricing - The industry is transitioning towards higher capacity and lower cost products, with the mainstream energy storage system size shifting from 215 kWh to 261 kWh, and the cell capacity moving from 280 Ah to 314 Ah, expected to exceed 70% market share by 2025 [11]. - The average price of domestic commercial energy storage systems is projected to decrease from 0.8 CNY/Wh to 0.6 CNY/Wh by 2025, with the lowest prices potentially falling below 0.5 CNY/Wh [12]. Group 3: Regional Market Insights - The European market is expected to see significant growth, with effective demand projected to exceed 4 GWh in 2025, driven by clear pricing policies and quick return on investment [13]. - In Africa, demand is rapidly increasing due to unreliable power supply, with overall demand expected to reach GWh scale [13]. - Latin America is projected to have a demand of 0.5 GWh, primarily in Chile, Mexico, and Brazil, while the Middle East is still in the exploratory phase with an estimated output of around 100 MWh [13]. Group 4: Industry Competition and Consolidation - The commercial energy storage sector is facing intensified competition, leading to the potential elimination of weaker players, thereby increasing industry concentration [14].
