根據 Stratistics MRC 的數據,全球重力儲能市場預計在 2025 年達到 22 億美元,到 2032 年將達到 101 億美元,預測期內的複合年成長率為 24.2%。
重力儲能系統利用多餘的電力,透過提升重物(例如混凝土塊或水)來儲存能量,然後透過降低重物來釋放能量以產生電力。透過利用自然重力,該系統提供永續的長期儲能。這些系統專為可再生能源整合而設計,可提供電網穩定性和環保解決方案,並滿足尋求可靠、低維護傳統電池替代方案的行業需求。
根據 ARPA-E 介紹,重力儲能系統利用深井或廢棄礦井中的重物來儲存潛在能量,用於大規模、長期的電網儲存。
提高可再生能源整合度
主要資訊來源是全球將太陽能和風能等大規模可再生能源併入電網的趨勢。這些能源來源的間歇性使得對長時儲能 (LDES) 的需求變得至關重要,LDES 可以儲存多餘的能量並在需要時釋放。重力儲能憑藉其大容量和長壽命,為電網平衡和可靠性提供了可行的解決方案,對於實現更高的可再生能源滲透率和脫碳目標至關重要。
技術限制和擴充性問題
一個關鍵的限制因素是,目前如何將該技術推廣到廣泛的電網級應用面臨技術挑戰。雖然原理簡單,但建造用於承載重物的大型結構和深井需要大量資金、特殊的地理條件(例如深礦井和高海拔地區)以及複雜的工程。與其他替代方案相比,該技術的能量密度也較低,需要非常龐大的系統才能實現巨大的儲存容量,這在可行性、授權以及快速、經濟高效的部署方面都存在重大障礙。
系統設計的進步
巨大的機會在於創新系統設計的快速發展,這些設計能夠克服初期的擴充性挑戰。各公司正在開發一些新穎的概念,例如利用現有地形(舊礦井)、模組化塔架系統以及能夠堆疊和下放複合塊的自主機器人起重機。這些創新旨在提高效率和擴充性,同時降低材料成本、土地使用和環境影響,使該技術更具經濟可行性,對投資者和公用事業公司更具吸引力。
與蓄電池的競爭
市場面臨來自快速發展和擴張的電池儲能領域(尤其是鋰離子電池)的嚴峻威脅。電池具有成本下降、生產規模大、能量密度高和反應時間快等優點。雖然重力儲能具有卓越的續航能力,但電化學儲能解決方案的優越性、普及度和持續的技術創新,對計劃融資和市場佔有率構成了巨大的競爭挑戰,尤其是在短時儲能需求方面。
新冠疫情最初導致供應鏈中斷,並因停工和經濟不確定性而推遲了先導計畫。然而,疫情的長期影響是正面的,因為復甦計畫強調建設性韌性和綠色基礎設施。疫情凸顯了穩定能源系統的重要性,並促使政府和企業加速關注可再生能源整合和長期儲能等支援性技術,為基於重力的解決方案帶來了大量關注和潛在投資。
混凝土砌塊市場預計將成為預測期內最大的市場
由於混凝土砌塊成本低、密度高、耐用且廣泛可用,預計將在預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率。使用批量生產的混凝土砌塊作為配重,提供了一種簡單、經濟高效且可擴展的勢能儲存方法。這種設計利用了成熟的施工技術和供應鏈,與非常規設計相比,降低了技術風險和初始資本支出。其實用性和簡單的工程設計使其成為市場發展初期最具商業性可行性的方法。
預計試點部分在預測期內將以最高複合年成長率成長
預計試點階段將在預測期內實現最高成長率,這得益於迫切需要大規模展示一項技術的可行性、效率和經濟可行性。隨著一項技術從概念走向商業化,先導計畫和示範計畫的激增對於降低投資風險、資金籌措、授權以及證明電網整合能力至關重要。隨著眾多公司和公用事業公司啟動全球首創計劃來檢驗設計並收集營運數據,預計這一階段將出現最高的相對成長。
預計亞太地區將在預測期內佔據最大的市場佔有率,這得益於該地區對可再生能源的大規模投資,尤其是在中國和印度,這帶來了對電網規模儲能的迫切需求。該地區能源需求快速成長,政府推出了支持清潔能源技術的政策,並且擁有優越的部署地理位置。強大的鋼材和混凝土等必要部件製造能力,使亞太地區成為大規模重力儲能設施早期階段的關鍵市場。
預計北美地區在預測期內將呈現最高的複合年成長率,這得益於政府通過《美國通膨削減法案》等政策大力支持儲能創新,該法案為獨立儲能項目提供投資稅額扣抵。對新型長時儲能技術的高額創業投資投資、對電網彈性和脫碳的關注,以及推動先導計畫的創新新興企業的存在,正在推動市場從小規模迅速擴張,最終實現最高的成長率。
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Gravity Energy Storage Market is accounted for $2.2 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach $10.1 billion by 2032 growing at a CAGR of 24.2% during the forecast period. Gravity energy storage is a system that stores energy by lifting heavy weights, such as concrete blocks or water, using excess electricity, and releases energy by lowering them to generate power. Utilizing natural gravitational forces, it provides sustainable, long-duration energy storage. Designed for renewable energy integration, these systems offer grid stability and eco-friendly solutions, catering to industries seeking reliable, low-maintenance alternatives to traditional battery storage.
According to ARPA-E, gravity storage systems use weights in deep shafts or abandoned mines to store potential energy for large-scale, long-duration grid storage.
Increasing renewable energy integration
The primary driver is the global push to integrate large-scale renewable energy sources like solar and wind into the grid. These sources are intermittent, creating a critical need for long-duration energy storage (LDES) to store excess energy and discharge it when needed. Gravity storage, with its potential for high capacity and long lifespan, offers a viable solution for grid balancing and ensuring reliability, making it essential for achieving higher renewable penetration and decarbonization goals.
Technical limitations and scalability issues
A significant restraint is the current technical challenge of scaling this technology for widespread grid-level application. While the principle is simple, constructing massive structures or deep shafts for weights requires immense capital, specific geographical conditions (e.g., deep mines or tall elevations), and complex engineering. The energy density is also lower compared to some alternatives, meaning very large systems are needed for significant storage capacity, posing substantial hurdles for feasibility, permitting, and rapid, cost-effective deployment.
Advancements in system design
A major opportunity lies in rapid advancements in innovative system designs that overcome initial scalability challenges. Companies are developing novel concepts like using existing topography (old mine shafts), modular tower systems, and automated robotic cranes to stack and lower composite blocks. These innovations aim to reduce material costs, land use, and environmental impact while improving efficiency and scalability, making the technology more economically viable and attractive to investors and utility providers.
Competition from battery storage
The market faces a severe threat from the rapidly advancing and scaling battery storage sector, particularly lithium-ion. Batteries benefit from falling costs, massive manufacturing scale, high energy density, and rapid response times. While gravity storage excels in duration, the dominance, familiarity, and continued innovation in electrochemical storage solutions pose a major competitive challenge for securing project funding and market share, especially for shorter-duration storage needs.
The COVID-19 pandemic initially caused disruptions in supply chains and delayed pilot projects due to lockdowns and economic uncertainty. However, the long-term impact has been positive, as recovery plans heavily emphasized building resilient and green infrastructure. The pandemic underscored the need for stable energy systems and accelerated government and corporate focus on renewable integration and supporting technologies like long-duration energy storage, bringing greater attention and potential investment to gravity-based solutions.
The concrete blocks segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The concrete blocks segment is expected to account for the largest market share during the forecast period, resulting from the material's low cost, high density, durability, and widespread availability. Using mass-produced concrete blocks as weights offers a simple, cost-effective, and scalable method for storing potential energy. This design leverages established construction techniques and supply chains, reducing technological risk and initial capital expenditure compared to more novel designs. Its practicality and straightforward engineering make it the leading and most commercially viable approach in the early market development phase.
The pilot segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
Over the forecast period, the pilot segment is predicted to witness the highest growth rate, propelled by the critical need to demonstrate the technology's feasibility, efficiency, and economic viability at a meaningful scale. As the technology moves from concept to commercialization, a surge in pilot and demonstration projects is essential to de-risk investments, attract funding, secure permits, and prove grid integration capabilities. This phase will see the highest relative growth as numerous companies and utilities initiate first-of-a-kind projects to validate their designs and gather operational data.
During the forecast period, the Asia Pacific region is expected to hold the largest market share, attributed to massive investments in renewable energy, particularly in China and India, creating an urgent need for grid-scale storage. The region has rapid energy demand growth, supportive government policies for clean energy technology, and availability of suitable sites for deployment. Strong manufacturing capabilities for necessary components like steel and concrete further position Asia Pacific as the primary market for initial large-scale gravity energy storage installations.
Over the forecast period, the North America region is anticipated to exhibit the highest CAGR associated with, strong governmental support for energy storage innovation through policies like the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act, which provides investment tax credits for standalone storage. High venture capital investment in novel long-duration storage technologies, a focus on grid resilience and decarbonization, and the presence of innovative startups driving pilot projects contribute to a rapidly expanding market from a smaller base, resulting in the highest growth rate.
