China has been an undisputed leader in the battery energy storage system deployment by a far margin. The nation more than quadrupled its battery fleet last year, which helped it surpass its 2025 target of 30 GW of operational capacity two years early.
Recently, China saw a diversifying new energy storage know-how. Lithium-ion batteries accounted for 97.4 percent of China's new-type energy storage capacity at the end of 2023. Aside from the lithium-ion battery, which is a dominant type, technical routes such as compressed air, liquid flow battery and flywheel storage are being developed rapidly.
Li added that China's dominance in energy storage technology, particularly in battery cell production, places it in a leading position to shape global storage standards. At the end of the first half, power storage capacity in China surpassed 100 GW, reaching 103.3 GW, a 47 percent year-on-year increase.
Overall capacity in the new-type energy storage sector reached 31.39 gigawatts (GW) by the end of 2023, representing a year-on-year increase of more than 260 per cent and almost 10 times the capacity in 2020, China’s National Energy Administration (NEA) said in a press conference on Friday.
China has added 21.5 GW of storage capacity so far this year, which is three times the amount added during the same period in 2022, accounting for 47 percent of the global increase, it said. China's momentum in energy storage reflects a blend of strategic policy support, technological innovation and strong industry partnerships, said Li.
The rapid growth is guaranteed by China's strong battery manufacturing capability. Last year, a new energy power and energy storage battery manufacturing base with an annual production capacity of 30 GWh, constructed by China's battery giant Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Ltd. (CATL), went into operations in Guizhou Province.
