The use of battery energy storage in power systems is increasing. But while approximately 192GW of solar and 75GW of wind were installed globally in 2022, only 16GW/35GWh (gigawatt hours) of new storage systems were deployed.
Other storage includes compressed air energy storage, flywheel and thermal storage. Hydrogen electrolysers are not included. Global installed energy storage capacity by scenario, 2023 and 2030 - Chart and data by the International Energy Agency.
Low-cost renewable electricity is spreading and there is a growing urgency to boost power system resilience and enhance digitalization. This requires stockpiling renewable energy on a massive scale, notably in developing countries, which makes energy storage fundamental.
The deployment of energy storage systems in developing regions holds the potential to revolutionize the energy landscape, but combined efforts between different institutions is pivotal in driving this essential shift towards sustainable energy solutions.
Installed capacity is typically calculated in megawatts (MW). For example, in the first quarter of 2012, there was 1,695 MW of new wind energy installed capacity in the US for a total of 48,611 MW of cumulative wind installed capacity.
Installed capacity is higher than the amount of electricity that a power plant can actually produce because it does not take into account factors that can reduce electricity production, including:
