Will batteries lead to a sixfold increase in energy storage capacity?

Batteries need to lead a sixfold increase in global energy storage capacity to enable the world to meet 2030 targets, after deployment in the power sector more than doubled last year, the IEA said in its first assessment of the state of play across the entire battery ecosystem.

How can batteries improve energy security?

In other sectors, clean electrification enabled by batteries is critical to reduce the use of oil, natural gas and coal. To triple global renewable energy capacity by 2030 while maintaining electricity security, energy storage needs to increase six-times.

How important is battery energy storage in the energy transition?

The International Energy Agency (IEA) has issued its first report on the importance of battery energy storage technology in the energy transition. It has found that tripling renewable energy capacity by 2030 would require 1,500 GW of battery storage.

Will battery storage capacity increase 44-fold in 2021?

Research from International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that the deployed grid-scale battery storage (BESS) capacity should increase 44-fold to 680 GW in the Net Zero Scenario target between 2021 and 2030 . Up from 6 GW in 2021, about 140 GW of capacity is created in just 2030.

What is the future of battery storage?

Batteries account for 90% of the increase in storage in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, rising 14-fold to 1 200 GW by 2030. This includes both utility-scale and behind-the-meter battery storage. Other storage technologies include pumped hydro, compressed air, flywheels and thermal storage.

What if we don't have enough batteries?

To triple global renewable energy capacity by 2030, 1 500 GW of energy storage, of which 1 200 GW from batteries, will be required. A shortfall in deploying enough batteries would risk stalling clean energy transitions in the power sector.
