Do You Understand the Changing Global Position of the Energy Storage Industry?

The Global Resolute Stance on Renewable Energy

Under the dual pressures of global climate change and energy transition, the development of renewable energy has become a common strategic choice of the international community and a shared life pursuit of people around the world.

Data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) shows that the global newly-added installed capacity of renewable energy has continued to hit record highs in recent years. For instance, the global newly-added installed capacity in 2023 increased by 50% compared with the previous year, and its growth rate surpassed any period in the past 20 years.

As stated in the IEA's Renewables 2024 report: By 2030, the global installed capacity of renewable energy is projected to grow 2.7 times, which is nearly 25% higher than the current ambitions of various countries. Among this growth, China’s expanded installed capacity will account for 60% of the global total, solidifying its position as the global leader in renewable energy once again.

However, renewable energy sources, particularly wind and solar energy, have inherent characteristics of intermittency and volatility in their power generation patterns. To achieve stable and continuous electricity output and establish a clean energy system led by renewable energy, energy storage systems are the key technology.

Energy Storage Systems: The "Buffer" for Grid Connection of Renewable Energy

The application of energy storage systems in renewable energy mainly manifests in the following aspects:

Smoothing Fluctuations and Ensuring Grid Stability
● When wind speed suddenly increases or solar irradiance suddenly intensifies, energy storage systems quickly absorb excess electrical energy to prevent grid overload.

● In the absence of sunlight or wind, energy storage systems promptly release the stored electrical energy. This ensures the smooth and continuous output of electricity, as well as the stability of grid frequency and voltage.

"Peak Shaving and Valley Filling" for Optimized Power Dispatching
During off-peak electricity consumption periods, energy storage systems are used to store electrical energy; during peak electricity consumption periods, the stored energy is released to reduce pressure on the power grid, thereby improving the grid's operational efficiency and economic viability.

Enhancing Self-Consumption Rate and Off-Grid Power Supply
● On the user side (e.g., households, industrial and commercial entities), photovoltaic (PV) systems combined with energy storage systems can maximize the retention of electricity generated during the day for nighttime use, reducing reliance on the power grid.

● For remote areas without electricity access, islands, or communication base stations, off-grid energy storage systems can provide stable and reliable independent power supply solutions.

Broad Prospects of the Energy Storage Industry

Driven by the continuous increase in new energy penetration and supportive policies worldwide, the energy storage industry has entered a phase of explosive growth.

Surge in Market Scale
As of the end of June 2025, the cumulative installed capacity of operational power energy storage projects in China had reached 164.3 GW (including pumped hydro storage, molten salt heat storage, and new-type energy storage), representing a year-on-year growth of 59%. Among this, new-type energy storage accounted for 61.7% of the total installed capacity. The installed capacity of battery energy storage in countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Australia has all shown an upward trend.

Diversification of Application Scenarios
The application of energy storage has gradually expanded from the initial mandatory energy storage allocation on the power generation side to frequency regulation and peak shaving on the grid side, as well as cost reduction and efficiency improvement on the industrial, commercial, and residential user sides. Profit models have become increasingly diversified. Particularly in the industrial and commercial energy storage sector, with the widening gap between peak and valley electricity prices, the demand for user-side energy storage is releasing rapidly.

Accelerated Technological Innovation
Taking battery energy storage as an example:

● Innovations in battery materials (e.g., lithium iron phosphate) have improved battery safety, cycle life, and cost-effectiveness.

● Optimization of system integration and intellectualization has enabled "one-stop" solutions to enhance efficiency.
