Key Contractual Considerations for BESS
Procuring a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) requires a well-structured contract to ensure performance, reliability, and risk management. A strong
InfoLink sees global energy-storage installation increase by 50% to 165 GWh and energy-storage cell shipments by 35% to 266 GWh in 2024. Database contains the global lithium-ion battery market supply and demand analysis, focusing on the cell segment in the ESS sector.
In this context, a developer will often seek to enter into a supply agreement for the Battery Energy Storage System ("BESS"), which will then be supplied to the civil works contractor for installation and commissioning.
The world shipped 196.7 GWh of energy-storage cells in 2023, with utility-scale and C&I energy storage projects accounting for 168.5 GWh and 28.1 GWh, respectively, according to the Global Lithium-Ion Battery Supply Chain Database of InfoLink.
Database contains the global lithium-ion battery market supply and demand analysis, focusing on the cell segment in the ESS sector. We compile detailed data on various businesses' capacity, production, and shipments, as well as segmenting the market applications such as FTM, BTM-C&I, and BTM-Residential.
Additionally, Samsung SDI and LG's energy-storage cell shipments totaled nearly 14 GWh in 2023, translating to a slightly lower market share of 7%. For utility-scale energy storage, CATL, BYD, EVE Energy, Hithium, and REPT BATTERO shipped the most in 2023. CATL shipped more than 65 GWh and the rest less than 22 GWh.
BYD and EVE Energy followed closely each with shipments of over 25 GWh, while REPT BATTERO and Hithium each ranked fourth and fifth with shipments of over 15 GWh. Despite intense price competition, the leading companies demonstrated significant cost control advantages, reinforcing the "the strong get stronger" pattern.
