“Our global Autos research team forecasts electrification of the fleet to hit 25% of auto sales by 2025 vs. 5% in 2015. In battery terms, we estimate this would equate to a robust 42% battery volume CAGR over the next decade, with battery demand from autos reaching ~175GWh and far eclipsing the 40GWh of batteries consumed by consumer electronics today.” GS The Low Carbon Economy, November 30, 2015

“Grid-scale power storage – long a “holy grail” for renewable energy – is gaining momentum as an investable theme. From Tesla’s Gigafactory to investments by utilities and mandates from regulators, a confluence of drivers is accelerating efforts to cost effectively store power for the electric grid”.
