Overview of Report Findings

Growing Investment in Renewable Power Generation:

Since over 70% of greenhouse gas emissions come from the energy sector, an EMS is an effective tool in the fight against CO2 emissions as per the EIA. A battery energy storage system boosts the usage of renewable energy during peak periods and thus reduces dependence on fossil fuels.

The load optimization process ensures a device operates at peak efficiency, preventing energy wastage and lowering emissions. In addition, an EMS facilitates the seamless integration of renewable power sources, including solar and wind, into the power grid. By prioritizing renewable energy when available, BESS minimizes reliance on fossil fuels, which are the primary contributors to carbon emissions. Efficiency is an important measure for reducing energy demand in the Net Zero Emissions by the 2050 scenario and has made progress in recent years. However, to achieve this target, the rate of improvement in global energy intensity must be higher than in the past.

Role of Solar Energy in Energy Transition:

The energy transition is the transition from dependency on fossil fuels to renewable and cleaner energy sources. This change addresses the urgent need for sustainable, environmentally friendly energy solutions. Recent decades have seen an increase in carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, contributing to climate change. Transitioning to renewable and environment-friendly energy sources is a critical strategy to reduce these emissions and mitigate environmental damage. Solar energy is one of the fastest growing renewable energy sources and is playing an important role in the US's energy transition goals. In addition, technological advancements in solar panels and related power-generating devices such as inverters, batteries, and others are expected to be the future trend in the Photovoltaic market.

The increasing frequency of storms highlights the urgent need for an energy transition by fueling the adoption of solar energy in the US. In the country, as of November 8, 2023, there were 25 catastrophic events in 2023, each causing over US$ 1 billion in damages. Those events include two floods, 19 severe storms, one wildfire, one winter storm, and others. Hence, switching to renewable energy can help reduce the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that drive climate change and these devastating weather phenomena. Transitioning to clean energy can protect communities, save lives, and prevent major economic damage, which is anticipated to be the key trend in the Photovoltaic market from 2023 to 2031.
