Analysis of new energy storage installed capacity

What will China's energy storage capacity be in 2023?

In 2023, TrendForce anticipates China's energy storage installed capacity to reach 20 GW/44.2 GWh, marking a year-on-year growth of 177% and 186%, respectively. Although the actual installed capacity in 2023 falls slightly below the initially high expectations, the overall growth rate still exceeds 100%.

Is the energy storage industry poised for positive development?

Benefiting from favorable policies and reduced costs, the energy storage industry is poised for positive development. Globally, the installed demand for energy storage is expected to remain high in 2023, with TrendForce projecting a new installed capacity of 52 GW/117 GWh.

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 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 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 big will energy storage be in 2024?

Looking ahead to 2024, TrendForce anticipates that the global new installed capacity of energy storage will reach 71 GW/167 GWh, marking a year-on-year growth of 36% and 43%, respectively, and maintaining a high growth rate.
