China has been an undisputed leader in the battery energy storage system deployment by a far margin. The nation more than quadrupled its battery fleet last year, which helped it surpass its 2025 target of 30 GW of
For the 14th Five-Year Plan, the China State Council set a national target of installing 30 gigawatts (GW) of non-hydro energy storage by 2025, while provincial goals were more ambitious. Clear policy guidance and strong renewables growth make energy storage a rising star in China’s clean energy technology industry.
MWh (Megawatt-hour) is a measure of energy capacity (how long the system can continue delivering that power output). For example, a 1 MW / 4 MWh BESS has four hours of storage capacity.So, while the system might be $200,000 per MW, the effective cost can be $800,000 per MWh if it has four hours duration.
While Chinese players are competing on price, Western companies are focusing on improving the safety, availability and performance of energy storage systems. This is being achieved by enhancing software expertise and upgrading system designs.
Most Chinese provinces mandate that wind and solar projects be paired with a certain rate of energy storage between 5% to 20%, with the intention of enhancing power system flexibility and achieving high levels of renewable energy. But expectations are far from reality.
As the competition continues to intensify, many newly established Chinese storage companies will collapse. It will be unfortunate, of course, but it may present a good opportunity for the Chinese energy storage industry to reflect on how to achieve long-term and sustainable growth.
