Which countries need more battery storage?

Ireland and Germany’s capacities only grew by 28% from the previous year. Meanwhile, South Korea’s capacity remained the same. The International Energy Agency estimates that 1,300 GW of battery storage will be needed by 2030 to support the renewable energy capacity required to meet the 1.5°C global warming target.

What types of energy storage are included?

Other storage includes compressed air energy storage, flywheel and thermal storage. Hydrogen electrolysers are not included. Global installed energy storage capacity by scenario, 2023 and 2030 - Chart and data by the International Energy Agency.

Which country has the largest storage capacity?

California’s 8.6 GW is the largest capacity of any state and more than twice that of second-place Texas. Although Canada had only 0.4 GW of storage capacity in 2023, it quadrupled its capacity from the previous year. However, its 426% annual growth rate is still not the highest of the top 10 countries.
