Grid energy storage, also known as large-scale energy storage, are technologies connected to the electrical power grid that store energy for later use. These systems help balance supply and demand by storing excess electricity from variable renewables such as solar and inflexible sources like nuclear power, releasing it when needed.
The world's first batch of grid-forming energy storage plants has passed grid-connection tests in China, a crucial step in integrating renewables into power systems. Huawei's Grid-Forming Smart Renewable Energy Generator Solution achieved this milestone, demonstrating its successful large-scale application.
China is likely to be the main winner from the increased use of grid-scale battery energy storage. Chinese battery companies BYD, CATL and EVE Energy are the three largest producers of energy storage batteries, especially the cheaper LFP batteries.
By the reckoning of the International Energy Agency (iea), a forecaster, grid-scale storage is now the fastest-growing of all the energy technologies. In 2025, some 80 gigawatts (gw) of new grid-scale energy storage will be added globally, an eight-fold increase from 2021. Grid-scale energy storage is on the rise thanks to four potent forces.
Grid-scale battery storage is a mature and fast-growing industry with demand reaching 123 gigawatt-hours last year. There are a total of 5,000 installations across the world. In the first quarter of 2024, more than 200 grid-scale projects entered operation, according to Rho Motion, with the largest a 1.3GWh project in Saudi Arabia.
The CR Power* 25 MW/100 MWh grid-forming energy storage project has successfully passed unit, site, and system-level tests, including high/low voltage disturbance, phase angle jump, low-frequency oscillation, damping performance, and grid following/grid-forming mode switching tests, making it the world's first of its kind.
