In the long run, flow battery applications are likely to grow in the market during the forecast period due to the increasing penetration of the technology in long-duration energy storage applications, such as long service life and renewable power systems. There is a greater requirement for energy backup because of the increasing requirement for a regular supply in all major countries. In the event of power outages, flow batteries assist as a backup power source. Furthermore, the new technological advancements and innovations to diversify the scope of flow batteries in new commercial areas will enhance the market growth in the upcoming years.
According to Data Bridge Market Research, the Flow Battery Market witnessed a healthy CAGR of 28.60% from 2022 to 2029.
"Growing usage of renewable resources and durability of the battery is expected to drive the market growth"
The increasing usage of renewable resources and the life of the flow battery are considered to be the major factors expected to drive the growth of the flow battery market. Installing solar and wind power plants is anticipated to drive the demand for flow batteries because these batteries can work even in zero percent energy by consuming the energy stored in the battery itself. The government is also taking the initiative and encouraging the usage of rechargeable flow batteries over normal batteries because normal battery produces harmful substances such as lead, mercury, and cadmium into the environment, which are very risky to the ecosystem. The durability of the flow battery is considered a major driving factor because this battery has a lifespan of around 40 years, and the capacity can be easily augmented by raising the number of electrolytes and tanks. Therefore, the growing usage of renewable resources and the durability of the battery are expected to drive the market growth
What restraints the growth of the flow battery market?
"Higher Initial Investment costs associated with flow battery"
