Should energy storage be removed from energy grid connection?
For energy storage, the new Chinese policy emphasized the need to remove energy storage as a prerequisite for renewable energy project grid connection, a requirement that has been a major driver for battery build. Nonetheless, BNEF still expects strong demand for batteries, as the policy doesn’t explicitly require mandates to stop.
Why are energy storage systems being added to the grid?
Historic amounts of energy storage, primarily lithium-ion battery systems, are being added to the U.S. grid, driven by a need to balance renewable generation and to meet load growth, including from data centers.
What drives energy storage project development?
Globally, energy storage project development is increasingly driven by the utility-scale segment, with mandates and targeted auctions driving gigawatt-hour projects in markets like China, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Australia and Chile.
Which countries are implementing new capacity auctions for energy storage?
South Korea will hold an auction for storage to reduce renewable curtailment and published a new policy to revive its commercial storage sector. Australia and Japan are both executing new capacity auctions for clean firm capacity which benefit energy storage installation by providing long-term capacity payments.
