New Energy Storage Technologies Empower Energy
Foreword Stepping up efforts to develop new energy storage technologies is critical in driving renewable energy adoption, achieving China''s 30/60 carbon goals, and establishing a new
To support the global transition to clean electricity, funding for development of energy storage projects is required. Pumped hydro, batteries, hydrogen, and thermal storage are a few of the technologies currently in the spotlight.
From an international perspective, the IEA estimates that China will have the highest installed electrochemical energy storage capacity by 2026, accounting for 22% of the global total. By then, China will be on a par with Europe and outstrip the US by 7 percentage points (Figure 5). 2.
Asian non-OECD members (China and India) and European OECD members are expected to have the most storage capacity by 2050, followed by the United States. Natural gas will also likely provide firm, dispatchable power to complement renewables.
Global electricity output is set to grow by 50 percent by mid-century, relative to 2022 levels. With renewable sources expected to account for the largest share of electricity generation worldwide in the coming decades, energy storage will play a significant role in maintaining the balance between supply and demand.
