根据 Stratistics MRC 的数据,全球重力储能市场预计在 2025 年达到 22 亿美元,到 2032 年将达到 101 亿美元,预测期内的复合年增长率为 24.2%。

重力储能係统利用多余的电力,透过提升重物(例如混凝土块或水)来储存能量,然后透过降低重物来释放能量以产生电力。透过利用自然重力,该系统提供永续的长期储能。这些系统专为可再生能源整合而设计,可提供电网稳定性和环保解决方案,并满足寻求可靠、低维护传统电池替代方案的行业需求。

根据 ARPA-E 介绍,重力储能係统利用深井或废弃矿井中的重物来储存潜在能量,用于大规模、长期的电网储存。

提高可再生能源整合度

主要资讯来源是全球将太阳能和风能等大规模可再生能源併入电网的趋势。这些能源来源的间歇性使得对长时储能 (LDES) 的需求变得至关重要,LDES 可以储存多余的能量并在需要时释放。重力储能凭藉其大容量和长寿命,为电网平衡和可靠性提供了可行的解决方案,对于实现更高的可再生能源渗透率和脱碳目标至关重要。

技术限制和扩充性问题

一个关键的限制因素是,目前如何将该技术推广到广泛的电网级应用面临技术挑战。虽然原理简单,但建造用于承载重物的大型结构和深井需要大量资金、特殊的地理条件(例如深矿井和高海拔地区)以及复杂的工程。与其他替代方案相比,该技术的能量密度也较低,需要非常庞大的系统才能实现巨大的储存容量,这在可行性、授权以及快速、经济高效的部署方面都存在重大障碍。

系统设计的进步

巨大的机会在于创新系统设计的快速发展,这些设计能够克服初期的扩充性挑战。各公司正在开发一些新颖的概念,例如利用现有地形(旧矿井)、模组化塔架系统以及能够堆迭和下放复合块的自主机器人起重机。这些创新旨在提高效率和扩充性,同时降低材料成本、土地使用和环境影响,使该技术更具经济可行性,对投资者和公用事业公司更具吸引力。

与蓄电池的竞争

市场面临来自快速发展和扩张的电池储能领域(尤其是锂离子电池)的严峻威胁。电池具有成本下降、生产规模大、能量密度高和反应时间快等优点。虽然重力储能具有卓越的续航能力,但电化学储能解决方案的优越性、普及度和持续的技术创新,对计划融资和市场份额构成了巨大的竞争挑战,尤其是在短时储能需求方面。

COVID-19的影响:

新冠疫情最初导致供应链中断,并因停工和经济不确定性而推迟了先导计画。然而,疫情的长期影响是正面的,因为復苏计画强调建设性韧性和绿色基础设施。疫情凸显了稳定能源系统的重要性,并促使政府和企业加速关注可再生能源整合和长期储能等支援性技术,为基于重力的解决方案带来了大量关注和潜在投资。

混凝土砌块市场预计将成为预测期内最大的市场

由于混凝土砌块成本低、密度高、耐用且广泛可用,预计将在预测期内占据最大的市场份额。使用批量生产的混凝土砌块作为配重,提供了一种简单、经济高效且可扩展的势能储存方法。这种设计利用了成熟的施工技术和供应链,与非常规设计相比,降低了技术风险和初始资本支出。其实用性和简单的工程设计使其成为市场发展初期最具商业性可行性的方法。

预计试点部分在预测期内将以最高复合年增长率成长

预计试点阶段将在预测期内实现最高成长率,这得益于迫切需要大规模展示一项技术的可行性、效率和经济可行性。随着一项技术从概念走向商业化,先导计画和示范计画的激增对于降低投资风险、资金筹措、授权以及证明电网整合能力至关重要。随着众多公司和公用事业公司启动全球首创计划来检验设计并收集营运数据,预计这一阶段将出现最高的相对成长。

占比最大的地区:

预计亚太地区将在预测期内占据最大的市场份额,这得益于该地区对可再生能源的大规模投资,尤其是在中国和印度,这带来了对电网规模储能的迫切需求。该地区能源需求快速成长,政府推出了支持清洁能源技术的政策,并且拥有优越的部署地理位置。强大的钢材和混凝土等必要部件製造能力,使亚太地区成为大规模重力储能设施早期阶段的关键市场。

复合年增长率最高的地区:

预计北美地区在预测期内将呈现最高的复合年增长率,这得益于政府通过《美国通膨削减法案》等政策大力支持储能创新,该法案为独立储能项目提供投资税额扣抵。对新型长时储能技术的高额创业投资投资、对电网弹性和脱碳的关注,以及推动先导计画的创新新兴企业的存在,正在推动市场从小规模迅速扩张,最终实现最高的成长率。

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.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

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.

Restraint:

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.

Opportunity:

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.

Threat:

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.

Covid-19 Impact:

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.

Region with largest share:

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.

Region with highest CAGR:

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.
