6 FAQs about [Western European Energy Storage Power Budget]

How big is Europe's energy storage capacity?

The latest edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage by LCP Delta and The European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE), released today, highlights Europe's rapid expansion in energy storage capacity, which reached 89 gigawatts (GW) by the end of 2024.

Is energy storage a good investment in Europe?

Compared to classic renewables, energy storage has really only become an investable asset in Europe over the last few years on the back of technology advances, market price signals, and government support mechanisms.

What percentage of Europe's energy storage capacity is pumped hydro?

However, despite an exponential growth in Europe’s battery energy storage capacity, which reached 36 gigawatt-hours in 2023, pumped hydro still accounted for 90 percent of the electricity storage capacity in the European Union that year.

How do energy storage assets make money in Europe?

For short-duration energy storage assets, there are really three key revenue streams for energy storage assets in Europe. The first one is capacity payments, which have become a broadly implemented policy measure by governments to support system reliability and incentivize the installation of certain new power asset types.

Why should you invest in battery storage in Europe?

In Europe, the capacity of renewable energy sources is growing very rapidly, while traditional power plants are slowly being decommissioned. That’s creating a unique new opportunity for investors amid the emerging demand for battery storage, which provides balance to electricity markets.

How many battery energy storage systems were installed in Europe in 2024?

21.9 GWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS) was installed in Europe in 2024, marking the eleventh consecutive year of record breaking-installations, and bringing Europe’s total battery fleet to 61.1 GWh. However, the annual growth rate slowed down to 15% in 2024, after three consecutive years of doubling newly added capacity.
