    FAQs about Analysis of marketing model of industrial energy storage products

    What are business models for energy storage?

    Business Models for Energy Storage Rows display market roles, columns reflect types of revenue streams, and boxes specify the business model around an application. Each of the three parameters is useful to systematically differentiate investment opportunities for energy storage in terms of applicable business models.

    What factors influence the business model of energy storage?

    The factors that influence the business model include peak–valley price difference, frequency modulation ratio of the market, as well as the investment cost of energy storage, so this paper will discuss from the following perspectives.

    What is a business model for storage?

    We propose to characterize a “business model” for storage by three parameters: the application of a storage facility, the market role of a potential investor, and the revenue stream obtained from its operation (Massa et al., 2017).

    Is energy storage a profitable business model?

    Although academic analysis finds that business models for energy storage are largely unprofitable, annual deployment of storage capacity is globally on the rise (IEA, 2020). One reason may be generous subsidy support and non-financial drivers like a first-mover advantage (Wood Mackenzie, 2019).

    Why is energy storage development a problem in China?

    However, the current energy storage development still has the problem of insufficient business models and single energy storage income. With the continuous improvement of China's electricity market mechanism, a flexible market environment will provide more feasible business models and market space for energy storage development.
