For solar-plus-storage—the pairing of solar photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage technologies—NREL researchers study and quantify the unique economic and grid benefits reaped by distributed and utility-scale systems. Much of NREL's current energy storage research is informing solar-plus-storage analysis.
Solar-plus-storage shifts some of the solar system's output to evening and night hours and provides other grid benefits. NREL employs a variety of analysis approaches to understand the factors that influence solar-plus-storage deployment and how solar-plus-storage will affect energy systems.
To put this into more tangible numbers – we estimate Europe will install over 420,000 storage batteries in 2022, resulting in more than 1 million homes across the continent powered with joint solar & battery storage systems. It could have been much more, but a lack of installers across Europe limited the growth of solar systems.
Welcome to our European Market Outlook for Residential Battery Storage 2022-2026. With an unprecedented energy crisis in Europe driving skyrocketing electricity costs, citizens are increasingly looking at home solar power generation as a key tool to gain control of their energy bills.
In Sweden, electricity generation in the Solar Energy market is projected to reach 2.11bn kWh in 2025. An annual growth rate of 11.71% is anticipated during the period from 2025 to 2029 (CAGR 2025-2029).
