REUTERS/Stringer Acquire Licensing Rights BEIJING, July 23 (Reuters) - China aims to install more than 30 gigawatts (GW) of new energy storage capacity by 2025, its state planner said on Friday, as part of efforts to boost renewable power consumption while ensuring stable operation of the electric grid system.
As with other countries, pumped hydro is the vast majority of energy storage GW installed in China today. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has also recently revealed that China’s production output for lithium-ion batteries for energy storage reached 32GWh in 2021, up 146%.
Meanwhile, the State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC) reportedly plans to increase its capacity of battery storage to 100GW in 2030 from 3GW today, and do the same for pumped hydro storage from 26GW today. That is according to SGCC chairman Xin Baoan in a Chinese-language commentary published in the state-owned People’s Daily.
Following the 2021 “Opinion” policy release, storage battery sales reached a record high of 48GWh in 2021, which is 2.6 times the 2020 amount. Investment interest in advanced energy storage technologies, including flywheel, salt-carven compressed air, electrolysis power-to-gas, and vanadium flow battery, is still soaring.
The most noticeable change in the new plan (the “FYP”) is the shelving of a tangible installed capacity target for the new energy storage sector. In the 2021 policy (“Guiding Opinion,”) the regulators stipulate the industry to ten-fold its size to 30GW by 2025, from 3GW in 2020.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
