According to the New Energy Department of the State Grid Energy Research Institute, while lithium ion batteries are currently dominating, accounting for 98.2 percent of electrochemical storage capacity, China is gradually incorporating various long-duration technologies into its energy landscape.
At the end of the first half, power storage capacity in China surpassed 100 GW, reaching 103.3 GW, a 47 percent year-on-year increase. New energy storage systems now account for nearly 50 percent of the total, with lithium battery storage maintaining a dominant position in this sector, said Li.
ds, and service networks for battery storage systems.At present China does have some market advantages when it comes to the development of BESS infrastructure, including the supply chain related to global lithium-ion battery production,
By the end of 2023, China had completed and put into operation a cumulative installed capacity of new type energy storage projects reaching 31.4GW / 66.9GWh, with an average storage duration of 2.1 hours. The newly added installed capacity in 2023 was approximately 22.6GW / 48.7GWh, which is three times that for 2022 (7.3GW / 15.9GWh).
A high share of renewables increases grid volatility, necessitating greater energy storage support. As of now, China's new energy storage technologies are rapidly advancing, with lithium-ion battery storage, the most mature and cost-effective technology, dominating at 97 percent of the market, according to CCTV News.
