Building upon both strands of work, we propose to characterize business models of energy storage as the combination of an application of storage with the revenue stream earned from the operation and the market role of the investor.
The results demonstrate that the operational strategy proposed in this article for energy storage can significantly enhance its profitability in the electricity spot market and transitional business models.
In this study, a business model based on the sharing economy principle has been developed and analyzed. In this model, the energy storage operator offers its storage system to different kinds of customers. Each customer uses the ESS for their single use case.
We propose to characterize a "business model" for storage by three parameters: the application of a storage facility, the market role of a potential investor, and the revenue stream obtained from its operation (Massa et al., 2017).
The energy storage business model entails the methods and strategies employed to monetize energy storage systems, encompassing various value streams such as energy arbitrage, demand response, and ancillary services.
At present, the financial leasing business model is the most common business model for energy storage, and it is also the business operation model with the widest application range for distributed energy storage.
All energy storage projects hinge on a successful business model - and there are a growing number of them, as energy storage can provide value in different ways to different market segments. But what are those models and how are they distinguished?

With energy storage becoming an im-portant element in the energy system, each player in this field needs to prepare now and experiment and develop new business models in storage.
Under the current energy storage market conditions in China, analyzing the application scenarios, business models, and economic benefits of energy storage is conductive to provide a fundamental basis for the future large-scale development and commercial operation of new energy storage.
Let''s face it – the global energy storage market has become the rockstar of the clean energy transition. With a whopping $33 billion valuation and capacity to generate 100 gigawatt-hours annually [1], this industry isn''t just growing; it''s rewriting the rules of how we power our world.

E Though the business models are not yet fully developed, the cases indicate some initial trends for energy storage technology. Energy storage is becoming an independent asset class in the energy system; it is neither part of transmission and distribution, nor generation. We see four key lessons emerging from the cases.
The business models for large energy storage systems like PHS and CAES are changing. Their role is tradition-ally to support the energy system, where large amounts of baseload capacity cannot deliver enough flexibility to respond to changes in demand during the day.
In anticipation of a bright future, the first projects with energy storage are being set up. We have analyzed some of these cases and clustered them according to their po-sition in the energy value chain and the type of revenues associated with the business model.
With the rise of intermittent renewables, energy storage is needed to maintain balance between demand and supply. With a changing role for storage in the ener-gy system, new business opportunities for energy stor-age will arise and players are preparing to seize these new business opportunities.
