The EU installed a record 27.1 GWh of new battery storage capacity in 2025, driven by utility-scale projects that accounted for over half of new additions as the bloc races to build the
Depending on the data, this can include standardizing country names and world region definitions, converting units, calculating derived indicators such as per capita measures, as well as
Wind and solar combined are projected to account for about half of China''s total installed power capacity
Solar, wind, and batteries are set to supply virtually all net new US generating capacity in 2026, according to the latest EIA data.
In 2025, capacity growth from battery storage could set a record as we expect 18.2 GW of utility-scale battery storage to be added to the grid. U.S. battery storage already achieved record growth in 2024
The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) has released a whitepaper recommending the US deploy 10 million distributed solar installations and reach 700GWh of installed energy storage
Global installed energy storage capacity by scenario, 2023 and 2030 - Chart and data by the International Energy Agency.
Solar accounted for 56% of all new electricity-generating capacity added to the US grid in the first half of 2025, with a total of 18 GW installed. Combined, solar and storage accounted for 82%
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,
Of the 1,643 operational energy storage projects worldwide, 49% are located in the U.S., with another 131 projects under construction. 10 California leads U.S. capacity with 15.5 GW, followed by Texas. 8
