US battery storage deployments could fall by 29% in 2026 due to ongoing policy uncertainty, according to Wood Mackenzie.

The pipeline of grid-scale BESS projects with planning approval in the UK has now reached 58,270MW/121,645MWh in capacity.

National and regional agencies in India tendered for 9.5GW of utility-scale ESS in Q1 2025, more than two-thirds for standalone systems.

With over 9GWh of operational grid-scale BESS (battery energy storage system) capacity in the UK – and a strong pipeline – it’s worth identifying the regional hotspots and how the landscape may evolve in the future. 

The UK saw 1,590MW/3,179MWh of grid-scale BESS projects approved last month, bringing the total approved projects to around 55.4GW/117GWh.

ESN Premium speaks with Anna Darmani, energy storage analyst at Wood Mackenzie, about Europe’s sector evolution.

Despite a 12% year-on-year fall in the capacity of newly submitted planning applications in 2024, there is still a strong interest in the UK energy storage market as a whole.
