Battery Energy Storage in Southern Europe
📌

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.

📌

What is the battery storage Europe platform?

The Battery Storage Europe Platform brings together industry leaders representing the battery storage value chain to advance the business case and regulatory frameworks for battery storage across the EU. Together, we urge a tenfold increase in battery storage by to ensure Europe’s energy transition, security, and competitiveness.

📌

Is battery storage a political priority in Europe?

We’re accelerating battery storage across Europe by making it a political priority: 10X by ! In , Europe installed 21.9 GWh of new battery storage capacity: 11th consecutive record breaking year of annual additions Annual growth slows down in to 15%: inflection point toward next strong growth phase, led by grid-scale deployment

📌

How much battery storage will Europe have in ?

In the most-likely scenario for , 29.7 GWh of battery storage will be installed in Europe, representing a 36% annual growth. By , the report anticipates a sixfold increase to nearly 120 GWh, driving total capacity to 400 GWh (EU-27: 334 GWh).

📌

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.

📌

Why is battery storage so important in Europe?

Markus Elsaesser, the CEO of Solar Promotion GmbH (he/him), said: “Europe’s solar success has laid the foundation – now battery storage is stepping into its pivotal role. With solar power surging across the continent, the need for flexible capacity has never been clearer, and batteries are ready to deliver.
