[PDF Version]The volume of global energy storage capacity additions from batteries increased steadily from 2011 to 2019, when it peaked at 366 megawatts. However, newly installed battery capacities decreased to 124 and 29 megawatts in 2020 and 2021, respectively.
A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.
The IEA forecasts a rapid increase in the global deployment of battery storage, supported by falling costs and increasing government support. Under a Stated Policies Scenario, total global installed BESS is forecast to increase from 86 GW in 2023 to over 760 GW in 2030.
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.
Strong growth occurred for utility-scale battery projects, behind-the-meter batteries, mini-grids and solar home systems for electricity access, adding a total of 42 GW of battery storage capacity globally.
To deliver this, battery storage deployment must continue to increase by an average of 25% per year to 2030, which will require action from policy makers and industry, taking advantage of the fact that battery storage can be built in a matter of months and in most locations.
