Developing countries present enormous market opportunities for innovative long-duration energy storage technologies that can support the integration of greater shares of variable renewable energy into weak power grids, replace diesel generators, and provide seasonal balancing.
2018 saw the greatest capacity additions to energy storage systems globally. South Korea alone deployed a combined utility-scale and behind-the-meter storage of 0.6 gigawatts in 2019, making up the greatest share among the leading four countries, followed by China and Germany at 0.5 gigawatts. Statista Accounts: Access All Statistics.
Mainstreaming energy storage systems in the developing world will be a game changer. They will accelerate much wider access to electricity, while also enabling much greater use of renewable energy, so helping the world to meet its net zero, decarbonization targets.
I also consent to having my name published. Energy storage is key to secure constant renewable energy supply to power systems – even when the sun does not shine, and the wind does not blow. Energy storage provides a solution to achieve flexibility, enhance grid reliability and power quality, and accommodate the scale-up of renewable energy.
Vietnam also participated in the BESS consortium launch showing its commitment to clean energy transition. Battery Energy Storage Systems are a critical element to increasing the reliability of grids and accommodating the variable renewable energy sources that are needed to power economic development.
Energy storage takes many forms – pumped storage, compressed air storage, and thermal storage, among others. The WBG has been supporting pumped storage and thermal storage (in concentrated solar plants) for years.
