China is fast-tracking its renewable-energy installation capacity in its five-year plan through 2025. Here’s what you need to know about energy storage in Asia’s biggest economy. Why does China need many more power storage facilities?
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. New energy storage systems now account for nearly 50 percent of the total, with lithium battery storage maintaining a dominant position in this sector, said Li.
The global stationary energy storage sector is still quite immature, and China is no exception. Global installed capacity of stationary energy storage was around 3 gigawatts at the end of 2016, a fraction of the nearly 250 gigawatts of solar and 500 gigawatts of installed wind capacity.
The country's power storage capacity has steadily increased this year, with over 44 million kilowatts already in operation by the end of June, up 40 percent year-on-year, the energy authority said during a news conference in Beijing.
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.
According to the China Energy Storage Alliance, China had 118 ES projects in operation at the end of 2015 totaling 105.5 megawatts, or 11 percent of the global market CNESA 2016b). That figure includes lithium-ion, lead-acid, and flow battery technologies but excludes pumped hydro, compressed air energy storage, and thermal energy storage.
