Additions from utility-scale projects more than quadrupled in 2020, led by two of the world’s largest battery storage projects, the 400MW/1,600MWh Vistra Moss Landing
In its draft national electricity plan, released in September 2022, India has included ambitious targets for the development of battery energy storage. In March 2023, the European Commission published a series of recommendations on policy actions to support greater deployment of electricity storage in the European Union.
China is currently the world’s largest market for batteries and accounts for over half of all battery in use in the energy sector today. The European Union is the next largest market followed by the United States, with smaller markets also in the United Kingdom, Korea and Japan.
Batteries are an important part of the global energy system today and are poised to play a critical role in secure clean energy transitions. In the transport sector, they are the essential component in the millions of electric vehicles sold each year. In the power sector, battery storage is the fastest growing clean energy technology on the market.
IEC TC 120 has recently published a new standard which looks at how battery-based energy storage systems can use recycled batteries. IEC 62933‑4‑4, aims to “review the possible impacts to the environment resulting from reused batteries and to define the appropriate requirements”.
