Lithium iron phosphate (LFP) will be the dominant battery chemistry over nickel manganese cobalt (NMC) by 2028, in a global market of demand exceeding 3,000GWh by 2030.
The German battery storage market continues to be dominated by the residential segment which accounted for 93% of the 1,350MWh of capacity installed last year, according to research by a group of Aachen-based institutions.
South African grid operator Eskom is close to finalising the launch of 832MWh of battery energy storage development, but eyes are on an even larger upcoming REIPPP-model procurement.
