A total of 10.9GWh of grid-scale BESS entered commercial operations in March, up 29% year-on-year and 3% month-on-month. 

The EU could save €9 billion a year in gas costs by deploying BESS to capture excess wind and solar, according to think tank Ember.

Energy-Storage.news, PV Tech and Huawei present a special report on the technologies and trends shaping the global energy storage market.

According to IEA and BloombergNEF, battery storage was the most invested-in energy tech, with biggest-ever growth in deployments recorded.

Only half of the energy storage needed to properly integrate the potential solar PV additions globally by 2030 will be deployed based on current policies, the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in its World Energy Outlook report for 2023.

Cumulative energy storage installations will go beyond the terawatt-hour mark globally before 2030 excluding pumped hydro, with lithium-ion batteries providing most of that capacity, according to new forecasts.

Julia Souder, CEO of the Long Duration Energy Storage Council, explores energy storage as the cornerstone of power grids of the future.

Long-duration energy storage was firmly on the agenda and among the talking points of attendees at Energy Storage Summit EU in London.

Recent policy developments in the US and European Union represent a considerable uplift to prospects for global energy storage deployment.

Despite the fall in unit prices for energy storage, a total of US$3.6 billion of investment was committed to energy storage projects in 2020, around the same amount as in 2019.
