Delivering reliable, sustainable and cost-effective energy storage across the globe, lead batteries are a high-performing technology delivering a greener future. Check out CBI's interactive map to see examples of lead batteries in action for energy storage for utility and renewable projects.
This technology strategy assessment on lead acid batteries, released as part of the Long-Duration Storage Shot, contains the findings from the Storage Innovations (SI) 2030 strategic initiative.
The LIB penetration is due to Tesla and BYD. But not really for technical reasons... Lead batteries are uniquely suited for auxiliary applications, offering robust, well-known, high power, and reliable solutions. Developments must center around integrating lead batteries into battery management and sensor arrays.
In 2024, Harvard researchers revealed a design that enables ultra-fast charging and thousands of cycles without degradation in solid-state batteries. Another team at the University of Chicago developed an anode-free sodium solid-state battery, marking a significant step toward safer, high-capacity batteries for EVs and grid storage.
In 2025, capacity growth from battery storage could set a record as we expect 18.2 GW of utility-scale battery storage to be added to the grid. U.S. battery storage already achieved record growth in 2024
