The country’s progress in new-type energy storage highlights how innovation can drive both economic and environmental progress worldwide.

Will China achieve full market-oriented development of new energy storage by 2030?

The country has vowed to realize the full market-oriented development of new energy storage by 2030, as part of efforts to boost renewable power consumption while ensuring stable operation of the electric grid system, a statement released by the National Development and Reform Commission and the National Energy Administration said.

Will new energy storage be more expensive in 2025?

The NDRC said new energy storage that uses electrochemical means is expected to see further technological advances, with its system cost to be further lowered by more than 30 percent in 2025 compared to the level at the end of 2020.

What will storage be like in 2025?

Europe saw a pivotal moment when the grid-scale segment experienced a significant surge, surpassing the distributed segment for the first time. In Latin America, momentum was built as storage deployments increased by 42%. In 2025, emerging markets for storage will be on the rise.

When will new energy storage development be introduced?

The commission said earlier it will introduce a plan for new energy storage development for 2021-25 and beyond, while local energy authorities should also make plans for the scale and project layout of new energy storage systems in their regions.

What is new energy storage?

New energy storage refers to electricity storage processes that use electrochemical, compressed air, flywheel and supercapacitor systems but not pumped hydro, which uses water stored behind dams to generate electricity when needed.
