📌

How many battery energy storage systems were installed in Europe in ?

21.9 GWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS) was installed in Europe in , marking the eleventh consecutive year of record breaking-installations, and bringing Europe’s total battery fleet to 61.1 GWh. However, the annual growth rate slowed down to 15% in , after three consecutive years of doubling newly added capacity.

📌

How many energy storage projects are there in Europe?

There are 147 energy storage projects under construction in Europe, with a total capacity of 14 GW, according to the European Energy Storage Inventory, launched by the European Commission. The European Energy Storage Inventory comprises operational, under construction, permitted, and announced energy storage projects across Europe.

📌

What is the European energy storage inventory?

The Commission’s European Energy Storage Inventory can help address this gap within Europe. Launched in March , it is the first European-level tool of its kind, providing a real-time dashboard of energy storage levels in Europe, offering energy storage data across a full range of technologies.

📌

Is the battery storage age just beginning in Europe?

Walburga Hemetsberger, CEO of SolarPower Europe (she/her), said: “If Europe has already entered the solar age, the battery storage age is just beginning. With solar energy mainstreaming across the continent, now is the time for European decisionmakers to put batteries at the centre of a flexible, electrified, energy system.
