How big is China's energy storage capacity?

China's installed new-type energy storage capacity had reached 44.44 gigawatts by of the end of June, expanding 40 percent compared with the end of last year, the National Energy Administration (NEA) said on Wednesday. Lithium-ion batteries accounted for 97 percent of China's new-type energy storage capacity at the end of June, the NEA added.

Does China's energy storage capacity exceed pumped storage capacity?

China's installed capacity of new-type energy storage exceeded that of pumped storage for the first time at the end of 2024, according to a recent data release by China Energy Storage Alliance.

Why is China's energy storage capacity expanding?

BEIJING, July 31 -- China's energy storage capacity is expanding to facilitate the utilization of growing renewable power amid the country's efforts to advance its green energy transition.

How much energy storage will China have in 2023?

The development of new energy storage is accelerating. According to the research report released at the "Energy Storage Industry 2023 Review and 2024 Outlook" conference, the scale of new grid-connected energy storage projects in China will reach 22.8GW/49.1GWh in 2023, nearly three times the new installed capacity of 7.8GW/16.3GWh in 2022.

How will the NEA improve China's energy storage capacity?

The NEA said it will actively strengthen planning, improve standard systems and refine the market mechanism to promote the high-quality development of new-type energy storage. China's energy storage capacity is expanding to facilitate the utilization of growing renewable power amid the country's efforts to advance its green energy transition.

Why is energy storage important in China?

Developing energy storage is an important step in China's transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, while mitigating the effect of new energy's randomness, volatility and intermittence on the grid and managing power supply and demand, he said.
