Qianhe energy storage industry in-depth analysis

What is China's energy storage capacity?

Of this global total, China’s operational energy storage project capacity comprised 33.1GW, a growth of 5.1% compared to Q3 of 2019. Both in the international market and the Chinese market, pumped hydro storage continued to account for the largest proportion of energy storage capacity totals.

How is energy storage developing in China?

However, China's energy storage is developing rapidly. The government requires that some new units must be equipped with energy storage systems. The concept of shared energy storage has been applied in China, which effectively promotes the development of energy storage. 4.3. Explore new models of energy storage development

How many new energy storage projects are commissioned in China?

Figure 2: Cumulative installed capacity of new energy storage projects commissioned in China (as of the end of June 2023) In the first half of 2023, China's new energy storage continued to develop at a high speed, with 850 projects (including planning, under construction and commissioned projects), more than twice that of the same period last year.

What will China's energy storage systems look like in 2024?

Furthermore, the sustained growth in the demand for utility-scale Energy Storage Systems (ESS), driven by challenges in the consumption of wind and solar energy, is noteworthy. TrendForce predicts that China's new utility-scale installations could reach 24.8 gigawatts and 55 gigawatt-hours in 2024.

What types of energy storage installations are there in China?

Clearly, the predominant types of energy storage installations in China at present are still mandated installations for renewable energy and standalone energy storage. The primary driver behind the surge in domestic energy storage installations is the mandatory installation requirements.

Are there any gaps in energy storage technologies?

Even though several reviews of energy storage technologies have been published, there are still some gaps that need to be filled, including: a) the development of energy storage in China; b) role of energy storage in different application scenarios of the power system; c) analysis and discussion on the business model of energy storage in China.
