According to a research report released by the research and consulting institution LCP Delta, Europe deployed about 1.9GW power grid -scale battery energy storage system last year, of which nearly 85%were deployed in the UK, Ireland, Germany and France.
The company said that last year in Europe, there were 170 power grid -scale battery energy storage projects in the power grid, and the total installed capacity was 1.9GW, so 2022 was also a record of a record. The company expects that Europe will have a 3.7GW power grid -scale battery energy storage system in 2023, with a year -on -year growth of nearly 100%. These data come from Storetrack, its new energy storage data platform.
Although there is no national segmentation of the national level in a press release issued by the industry media, LCP Delta provides some data and information charts.
According to data released by the company, the British (excluding North Ireland) in 2022 deployed the 833MW battery energy storage system. According to a research report released by Solar Media, the battery energy storage system deployed by the UK (including North Ireland) is 750MW/800MWh. In any case, this number is equivalent to about 40%of the battery energy storage system deployed in Europe.
LCP Delta listed Ireland as the second largest energy storage market. In 2022, it deployed 328MW battery energy storage system (17%), followed by Germany 226MW (12.3%) and France 224MW (11.6%). Therefore, the total of these four countries accounted for 84.4%of the 1.9GW battery energy storage system deployed by Europe in 2022.
Italy is expected to have a sharp jump from 1.3%in 2022 to 22.7%in 2023.
Harmony Energy opened a 196MWH battery energy storage system in Yorkshire in northern England last year, which is said to be the largest energy storage project in Europe (calculated according to energy storage capacity). Two 100MWH battery energy storage project deployed in Belgium was put into use early this year.
The European Union recently introduced several eye -catching policies and measures to help promote the growth of the European energy storage market.
As part of the European Union's green trading industry plan, the European Commission recently proposed a new net zero industry bill to help EU member states quickly expand clean energy transformation and use the energy storage system as one of the technologies covering. The power market design reform proposed by the European Commission has also been welcomed by the energy storage industry agency.
