Over the past decade, these batteries have overtaken the battery sector thanks to a 90 % cost reduction since 2010, a higher energy density (density, measured in watt-hours per kilogram (Wh/kg), is the
Italy received the go-ahead late last year for plans to earmark €17.7 billion for constructing more than 9 GW of energy storage. In the Netherlands, meanwhile, German power
One solution to these challenges is Battery Energy Storage. Technology advancements, social needs and market demand are rapidly making batteries an attractive solution for decarbonising the
Our five-year outlook foresees significant BESS expansion in Europe – a sixfold increase to nearly 120 GWh by 2029, driving total capacity to 400 GWh, yet falls short of energy transition needs.
Southeast Asia now offers the least-cost solution for U.S. and European buyers seeking to circumvent direct China exposure. The report also evaluates the strategic role of non-lithium storage
Battery energy storage in Europe is key to renewable integration and grid stability, requiring tailored risk management and insurance strategies for growth.
Batteries and electric vehicles (EVs) contribute to Europe''s energy security, climate policy and industrial strategy. Stationary batteries help to stabilise electricity grids, while EV adoption
Beyond traditional lithium-ion batteries, breakthrough technologies like solid-state cells, hydrogen fuel systems, and gravity-based storage are reshaping how we capture and distribute power.
In this audit, we assessed whether the Commission has been effective at promoting a European industrial policy on batteries. In particular, we examined the policy objectives and intervention tools
27.1 GWh of new battery capacity installed in 2025, marking the EU''s 12th consecutive record year for battery storage deployment. 55% of all new capacity came from utility-scale systems,
