Energy Storage

Battery electricity storage is a key technology in the world''s transition to a sustainable energy system. Battery systems can support a wide range of services needed for the transition, from providing frequency response, reserve capacity, black-start capability and other grid services, to storing power in electric vehicles, upgrading mini-grids and supporting "self-consumption" of

How battery energy storage can power us to net zero

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

What is renewable energy storage?
