By 2024 China is building 30 Concentrated Solar Power Projects as part of gigawatt-scale renewable energy complexes in each province, appropriately reflecting the urgency and scale needed for climate action
China required from the first demonstration phase that each CSP project must include thermal energy storage, marking the first recognition globally of the value of the low cost and longevity of thermal energy storage. As a power station storing solar energy thermally, CSP operates like a gas plant to supply grid services like rolling reserves.
China's new energy storage capacity will be installed in 2023 In 2023, China's new installed capacity of energy storage was about 26.6GW.
It is estimated that by 2030, the cumulative installed capacity of energy storage in China will be about 315GW, of which the cumulative installed capacity of new energy storage will be about 170GW, that of pumped storage will be about 140GW, and that of cold and heat storage will be about 5GW.
Dai Jianfeng, a deputy chief engineer of China Electric Power Planning and Engineering Institute, said the new energy storage in China has been developed through diverse technology routes. According to him, lithium-ion battery is still dominant at present, but the development of compressed air and liquid flow battery is accelerating.
Their new energy-storage capacity in 2022 accounted for 86 percent of the global total, up 6 percentage points from 2021. The CNESA report estimated that China's cumulative installed capacity of new energy storage in 2027 may reach 138.4 gigawatts if the country's provincial-level regions achieve their targets of energy-storage construction.
