Energy storage industry chain weekly review

What was the US energy storage industry doing in Q2 2023?

Expansion at the plant represented the single biggest addition of capacity in the US in Q2 2023, Wood Mackenzie said. Image: LG Energy Solution. The US energy storage industry enjoyed another quarter of record growth in Q2 2023, with 1,680MW/5,597MWh of new installations tracked by Wood Mackenzie.

Should energy storage be developed?

Developing energy storage has become a global consensus. It was announced at COP29 in late 2024 that global storage capacity will increase to 1,500 GW by 2030, more than six times the 2022 level. As a result, InfoLink maintains a cautiously optimistic outlook for the medium- to long-term development of energy storage systems.

Will energy storage growth continue through 2025?

With developers continuing to add new capacity, including 9.2 GW of new lithium-ion battery storage capacity in 2024 through November 2024 and comparable levels of growth expected through the fourth quarter of 2024, energy storage investments and M&A activity are expected to continue this trajectory through 2025.

How can manufacturers capitalize on energy storage trends?

To capitalize on this trend, manufacturers should focus on market insights and plan for new opportunities. Developing energy storage has become a global consensus. It was announced at COP29 in late 2024 that global storage capacity will increase to 1,500 GW by 2030, more than six times the 2022 level.

What is the 2022 biennial energy storage review?

The 2022 Biennial Energy Storage Review serves the purpose defined in EISA Section 641(e)(5) and presents the Subcommittee’s and EAC’s findings and recommendations for DOE.

Why is 2024 a good year for energy storage?

2024 is the start of energy storage in the Middle East and Africa, with 2.7 GWh of capacity. Tender projects surged, exceeding 40 GWh, mainly from the UAE and Saudi Arabia. China-funded companies led, winning most announced projects. Intense competition lowered bid prices compared to other regions.
