Global warming potential of lithium-ion battery energy storage
Investments in battery energy storage systems were more than $5 billion in 2020. $2 billion were allocated to small-scale BESS and $3.5 billion to grid-scale BESSs [23]. This might seem small in comparison to $118 billion invested in electric vehicles in 2020, or the $290 billion investment in wind and solar energy systems.
