The power plant strategy for hydrogen-capable power plants recently presented by the German government also emphasises that storage systems should be included. Exemption from grid charges The BMWK's comments express sympathy for the continuation of the current grid fee exemptions for energy storage systems.
While around 254 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity were generated from renewable energy in Germany in 2022, 600 TWh of electricity are expected to come from renewable sources by 2030. Germany is particularly dependent on a market ramp-up of energy storage systems, especially battery storage systems. What role do energy storage systems play?
The large pool of installed PV systems is a pillar for the development of the energy storage systems market. Germany was the leading market for behind-the-meter battery storage systems in. Around 580,000 stationary batteries were installed in 2024. This includes home, commercial, and large-scale storage systems.
Sustained growth is forecasted in the market for new PV capacity for years to come. Concurrently, battery systems are expected to reach a capacity of at least 100 GWh by 2030, reflecting a transformative shift within the German energy system towards renewable energy integration.
Innovative PV sales strategies, system configurations and integration processes - including storage and demand management - are intrinsic components of the specialist expertise being developed in Germany. International companies wishing to sell photovoltaic products in the European Union must fulfill established quality and safety requirements.
Battery Storage Boom: 1.2 Million Systems Installed Notably, battery storage systems, also essential for Germany’s renewable energy transition, constitute a significant component of this ecosystem, with 1.2 million installed systems.
