How big is China's energy storage capacity?

China's installed new-type energy storage capacity had reached 44.44 gigawatts by of the end of June, expanding 40 percent compared with the end of last year, the National Energy Administration (NEA) said on Wednesday. Lithium-ion batteries accounted for 97 percent of China's new-type energy storage capacity at the end of June, the NEA added.

How will the NEA improve China's energy storage capacity?

The NEA said it will actively strengthen planning, improve standard systems and refine the market mechanism to promote the high-quality development of new-type energy storage. China's energy storage capacity is expanding to facilitate the utilization of growing renewable power amid the country's efforts to advance its green energy transition.

How big is China's energy system in 2022?

The entire global total in 2022 was 338 gigawatts. “China is relying on these large wind and solar bases to play a key role in its new energy system,” said Michal Meidan, head of China energy research at the Oxford Institute for Energy Studies.

Why is China's energy storage capacity expanding?

BEIJING, July 31 -- China's energy storage capacity is expanding to facilitate the utilization of growing renewable power amid the country's efforts to advance its green energy transition.

Will a boom in energy storage solve China's supply-demand mismatch?

A boom in energy storage, mostly through large battery packs for grid-level storage, should also alleviate the supply-demand mismatch on China’s grid over the long term. Goldman Sachs analysts have forecast a 70-fold increase in battery storage in 2030 from 2021 levels.

What is China's Energy campaign?

It’s a campaign that promises an upheaval across the energy sector: curbing China’s demand for fossil fuels, trimming its reliance on energy imports and steering the world’s biggest polluter toward a feasible path to zero out its greenhouse gas emissions.
