THE ROLE OF ENERGY STORAGE IN THE ENERGY TRANSITION

Deye ESS

There is a growing need to increase capacity to store energy produced from the growing wind and solar industry for periods when there is less wind and solar. This is driving increased demand for infrastructure for energy storagethat is, a mixture of hardware and software technological solutions for solving problems with interruptions.

While the intermittency characteristic of clean energy does not allow us to have power 24/7, the fluctuating characteristics destabilize the grid. These scenarios are not ideal for the modern energy system.

Litijum-jonske baterije dominiraju tržištem, ali se pojavljuju druge tehnologije, uključujući natrijum-jonske, protočne baterije, skladištenje tečnog CO2, kombinaciju litijum-jona i čistog vodonika, kao i gravitaciono i termalno skladištenje.

Energy storage creates a buffer in the power system that can absorb excess energy during periods when renewable sources produce more than is needed. This stored energy is then fed back into the grid when supply is limited. It also plays an important role in times of any grid emergency and can supply the grid with sufficient energy for a short duration to prevent grid failures.

Globalno tržište skladištenja energije u 2024. procenjuje se na oko 360 GVh. U isto vreme, 90% svih novih primenjivanja skladištenja energije dogodilo se u obliku baterija u periodu od 2015. do 2024. (Baterije za energetske sisteme su takođe snažno povezane sa tržištem električnih vozila, koje globalno čini 80% potražnje za baterijama).

The global energy storage market is expected to grow sixfold, to more than 2 TWh by 2030, while annual deployment will grow by an average of 21% per year, and triple by 2030.

China represents 43% of this future market, followed by the USA, with a 14% market share. China is expected to remain the leader in the energy storage space, while Europe and India will occupy the third and fourth positions in the market by 2030.
