In 2020, more than 100,000 home storage units were implemented across Germany, bringing the total number to 300,000. In 2018, photovoltaic (PV) and energy-storage for households reached grid-parity: storing PV energy with batteries became cheaper than the price from the public power network.
While the demand for energy storage is growing across Europe, Germany remains the European lead target market and the first choice for companies seeking to enter this fast-developing industry. The country stands out as a unique market, development platform and export hub.
Increasing the share of renewables poses new challenges: Excess energy produced during off-peak hours needs to be stored and made available when needed. Since energy storage systems (ESS) can balance supply and demand, they are an essential part of Germany’s energy transition. In line with this, the market for ESS is constantly growing.
Remarkably, this share surged to 77% in 2023, indicating a significant upward trajectory of the trend toward combining PV residential rooftop systems with battery storage in Germany. To date, most battery storage systems in the German electricity system have been used exclusively to optimize self-consumption.
To date, most battery storage systems in the German electricity system have been used exclusively to optimize self-consumption. Consequently, an exponentially growing number of homeowners and companies store solar power for times when solar generation is low.
