In 2018, the capacity was 869 MW from 125 plants, capable of storing a maximum of 1,236 MWh of generated electricity. By the end of 2020, the battery storage capacity reached 1,756 MW. At the end of 2021, the capacity grew to 4,588 MW. In 2022, US capacity doubled to 9 GW / 25 GWh.
Batteries are typically employed for sub-hourly, hourly and daily balancing. Total installed grid-scale battery storage capacity stood at close to 28 GW at the end of 2022, most of which was added over the course of the previous 6 years. Compared with 2021, installations rose by more than 75% in 2022, as around 11 GW of storage capacity was added.
The main scientific contributions of this paper are the development of a method to estimate the usable battery capacity of home storage systems and the publication of the large dataset. The key findings are that the measured HSSs in field operation lose about 2–3 percentage points (pp) of capacity per year.
Global capability was around 8 500 GWh in 2020, accounting for over 90% of total global electricity storage. The world’s largest capacity is found in the United States. The majority of plants in operation today are used to provide daily balancing. Grid-scale batteries are catching up, however.
Battery energy storage systems are generally designed to be able to output at their full rated power for several hours. Battery storage can be used for short-term peak power and ancillary services, such as providing operating reserve and frequency control to minimize the chance of power outages.
It ensures stability to the grid, allows the connection of new consumers and supervises the entire electrical power system (hydro, biomass and storage). The 49MW battery storage facility at the West Burton power station site was the largest project in the new regulation system that had been set up across the UK.
