InfoLink expects China to add 39 GWh of energy storage capacity in 2023. The U.S. added 8.2 GWh of installed energy storage capacity in the first half of 2023, far behind anticipations. Constructions under the IRA face delays worse than expected.
As of the first half of 2023, the world added 27.3 GWh of installed energy storage capacity on the utility-scale power generation side plus the C&I sector and 7.3 GWh in the residential sector, totaling 34.6 GWh, equaling 80% of the 44 GWh addition last year. Despite a global installation boom, regional markets develop at varying paces.
Europe added around 7.3 GWh of installed energy storage capacity in the first half of 2023, with 4.6 GWh in the residential sector. Germany and Italy were the top performers. Currently, Europe still focuses on the BTM market. In the first half of 2023, the residential sector was vigorous.
The excitement shows that storage technology is moving into the spotlight as China’s accelerates its energy transition. With annual wind and solar installations booming and potentially allowing for an early peak in emissions in the world’s biggest polluter, the focus has shifted from generating clean energy to making sure it can be used.
Depending on the technology, energy storage can come in all shapes, sizes and forms of matter — air, liquids and solids. But it’s all about batteries right now, as that’s the only technology with any chance of keeping up with the size and speed of China’s renewables roll-out.
(Bloomberg) -- Energy storage is becoming so important in China that it’s drawing bigger crowds than Disneyland. More than 170,000 visitors are expected to descend on a Shanghai convention center over three days this week to view battery assemblies ranging in size from a shoe box to a shipping container.
