Scale of European energy storage power stations

4 FAQs about [Scale of European energy storage power stations]

How many energy storage facilities are there in Europe?

Europe currently has 913 energy storage facilities in operation, with a combined capacity of 67 GW. The predominant technology is mechanical storage (54.6 GW) with pumped storage hydropower plants. However, electrochemical storage, including lithium - ion and flow batteries, is catching up, at 11 GW.

How much energy storage will Europe have in 2024?

Many European energy storage markets are growing strongly, with 4.9 GW (12.1 GWh) of utility-scale (front-of-the-meter) energy storage deployed in 2024, giving an estimated total of more than 13 GW. Different studies have analysed the likely future paths for the deployment of energy storage in Europe.

How many GW of energy storage will Europe have in 2050?

Different studies have analysed the likely future paths for the deployment of energy storage in Europe. They point to more than 200 GW and 600 GW of energy storage capacity by 2030 and 2050 respectively (from roughly 89 GW in 2024, mainly in the form of pumped hydro storage).

How much energy storage will Europe have by 2030?

They point to more than 200 GW and 600 GW of energy storage capacity by 2030 and 2050 respectively (from roughly 89 GW in 2024, mainly in the form of pumped hydro storage). Compared to 2024, an additional 128GW/300GWh of electrochemical storage is expected to be added to European grids by 2030.
