The UK saw a slowdown in both BESS installations and submitted applications in 2024, while applications in Ireland grew by capacity.
Introduction The UK’s solar energy and battery storage sector is undergoing a rapid transformation, bolstered by ambitious climate targets and supportive policies. Solar photovoltaics (PV) capacity has rebounded since the end of feed-in tariffs, while energy storage is scaling up to enhance grid reliability.
Battery revenues saw their first increase in two consecutive months since March 2024 Battery energy storage revenues in Great Britain reached a rate of £88k/MW/year in January 2025, marking a 5% increase from December 2024 and the first back-to-back monthly revenue increase since early 2024.
With over 9GWh of operational grid-scale battery storage capacity in the UK, it's worth identifying its regionality and how this is changing.
Energy storage, meanwhile, has opportunities beyond just lithium batteries – the UK can become a leader in emerging storage tech such as flow batteries, hydrogen storage, and gravity-based systems (several prototypes are being trialled, supported by government innovation grants).
In conclusion, the UK’s solar and energy storage sector finds itself at an inflection point – bolstered by supportive policy, buoyant investment, and rapid tech improvements, yet challenged by infrastructure bottlenecks and the practicalities of an unprecedented build-out.
Distribution and transmission zones see high amounts of oversupply from battery energy storage projects. However, the extent does vary from zone to zone. The T3 transmission zone, covering North England, is currently the only transmission zone where there is an undersupply based on the current queue.
