The use of battery energy storage in power systems is increasing. But while approximately 192GW of solar and 75GW of wind were installed globally in 2022, only 16GW/35GWh (gigawatt hours) of new storage systems were deployed. To meet our Net Zero ambitions of 2050, annual additions of grid-scale battery energy storage globally must rise to an .
