Research and Markets: Global Batteries and Supercapacitors for the Smart Grid - 2013 Report


DUBLIN --(Business Wire)--

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/vch5gz/batteries_and) has announced the addition of the "Global Batteries and Supercapacitors for the Smart Grid - 2013 Report" report to their offering.

It is well known that energy storage is a vital component of the Smart Grids that are currently being built around the world. These grids are designed to improve the reliability of electricity transmission and distribution, facilitate the integration of renewable energy generators, and allow long-distance trading of electricity supplies. All of these functions require the grid to offer buffers where electricity can be stored locally. However, for the most part the technologies up to this task have not been available.

Key Topics Covered:

Executive Summary

E.1 The need for storage in the smart grid

E.2 Smart grid-related opportunities for battery and supercapacitor makers

E.3 Smart grid storage-related opportunities for materials makers

E.4 Key firms to watch in grid energy storage

E.5Summary of eight-year forecasts
