Impact of energy storage system policy ESS policies are the reason storage technologies are developing and being utilised at a very high rate. Storage technologies are now moving in parallel with renewable energy technology in terms of development as they support each other.
The final text of the Energy Storage and Grids Pledge for COP29 recognises the essential role both play in the power sector’s decarbonisation, including facilitating the increased integration of renewable energy and providing stable and secure supply of electricity.
Grid-scale battery storage in particular needs to grow significantly. In the Net Zero Scenario, installed grid-scale battery storage capacity expands 35-fold between 2022 and 2030 to nearly 970 GW. Around 170 GW of capacity is added in 2030 alone, up from 11 GW in 2022.
Grid-scale storage refers to technologies connected to the power grid that can store energy and then supply it back to the grid at a more advantageous time – for example, at night, when no solar power is available, or during a weather event that disrupts electricity generation.
The Asian Development Bank (ADB) multilateral finance institution has approved a loan to upgrade Sri Lanka’s grid infrastructure. World leaders attending COP29 encouraged to sign pledge to collectively increase global energy storage capacity to 1,500GW by 2030.
The authors support defining energy storage as a distinct asset class within the electric grid system, supported with effective regulatory and financial policies for development and deployment within a storage-based smart grid system in which storage is placed in a central role.
