IV.C. Large-scale storage systems In 2022, a record of 47 LSS with a battery energy of 0.47 GWh and a power of 0.43 GW were installed in Germany, showing an increase of 910% in terms of battery energy. By the end of 2022, 149 LSS with a cumulative battery energy of 1.2 GWh and a power of 1.07 GW were installed.
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?
In comparison to 2021, the market for home storage systems (HSS) grew by 52% in terms of battery energy in 2022 and is by far the largest stationary storage market in Germany. We estimate that about 220,000 HSS (1.9 GWh / 1.2 GW) were installed solely in 2022.
Public research and development incentives for EV and stationary battery research amount to between EUR 80 million and EUR 85 million every year. As the European lead market in the energy transition age, Germany provides the opportunity for companies to develop, test, define and market new energy storage solutions.
Residential ESS Continues to Lead in Germany's Energy Storage Landscape Residential energy storage systems (ESS) maintained their stronghold as the most prevalent installation type in Europe throughout 2023. According to TrendForce data, Germany's energy storage sector predominantly saw the adoption of residential storage solutions.
Specifically, new installations of residential storage surpassed 5GWh, capturing a substantial 83% share, followed by utility-scale energy storage and commercial & industrial (C&I) storage, which accounted for 15% and 2% respectively. Proportion of Germany’s Installations Types
