Thermal Energy Storage Market Analysis by Trends, Size, Share, Growth Opportunities, and Emerging Technologies
The demand for electricity is expected to grow at a 2.1% annual rate from 2019 till 2040, according to the World Energy Outlook 2019 published by the International Energy Agency (IEA). At this rate, compared to 19% in 2019, the share of electricity in final energy consumption will become 40% by 2040. This would be a result of the rapid industrialization, as an increase in the number of factories directly means a rise in the demand for power. It is not just factories where energy is needed, but almost everywhere — homes, commercial buildings, or transportation.
The concept is exactly what it sounds like: storing the extra energy contained in heat for future usage. Pumped heat electrical storage (PHES), ice thermal energy storage, concentrated solar power (CSP), and chilled-water thermal energy storage are the various ways in which it can be achieved. Among these, the most popular way to do this has been CSP, especially in Australia, the U.A.E., Morocco, and China. In these systems, the sunlight and heat are reflected on to a receiver by concave mirrors or lenses. The heat then drives a steam turbine, which ultimately generates the electricity.

Around the world, North America is the largest thermal energy storage market, on account of the quick development of CHP stations and rising requirement for backup power for heating ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. In the coming years, the demand for storing thermal energy would surge the fastest in APAC, as the growing population in the region is raising the demand for energy, while depleting the fossil fuel reserves are shifting the limelight on renewable energy.
Thus, with the increasing concerns regarding air pollution, due to the burning of fossil fuels for generating electricity, the focus on renewable electricity will keep on rising, thus driving the popularity of the thermal energy storage concept.
