Electrochemical energy storage projects in the third quarter

How big will electrochemical energy storage be by 2027?

Based on CNESA’s projections, the global installed capacity of electrochemical energy storage will reach 1138.9GWh by 2027, with a CAGR of 61% between 2021 and 2027, which is twice as high as that of the energy storage industry as a whole (Figure 3).

How many electrochemical storage stations are there in 2022?

In 2022, 194 electrochemical storage stations were put into operation, with a total stored energy of 7.9GWh. These accounted for 60.2% of the total energy stored by stations in operation, a year-on-year increase of 176% (Figure 4).

How many energy storage installations are there in 2023?

According to EIA data, new energy storage installations in the United States reached 4.55 GW from January to October 2023. EIA forecasts project an additional 3.8 GW to be installed from November to December, bringing the total for 2023 to 8.35 GW—a year-on-year growth of 102%.

How has the energy storage industry changed in 2023?

In 2023, the energy storage industry shifted gears from prosperity to intense competition, giving rise to several focal points. Examining the global energy storage market, the installation base remained relatively low from 2021 to 2023. Consequently, as market demand soared, the global installed capacity experienced double growth.

How many MW of electrochemical storage is deployed worldwide?

For the period between January and September this year, 1,381.9MW of electrochemical storage was deployed worldwide, an increase of 42% on the same period last year, with the aforementioned 533.3MW in China.

How big is China's electrochemical storage capacity?

CNESA noted that during the third quarter, China’s installed capacity of electrochemical storage went beyond the 2GW mark, with 2242.92MW installed to date, against a global total of 10,902.4MW.
