The government of Hungary has introduced a HUF-100-billion (USD 305m/EUR 260m) programme to support residential energy storage installations to ensure that families with solar panels can remain self-sufficient in the long term. Author: Centre for Alternative Technology. By 2025, however, that threshold had already been surpassed, with gross installed PV capacity exceeding 9 GW. The new facility supports a growing push to green Hungary's power grid. Hungary has 40MWh of grid-scale BESS online today but that will jump 3,400% to around 1,300MWh over the next few years thanks to opex and capex support. . The Hungarian government has earmarked HUF 62 billion ($169 million) for grid-scale energy storage projects in a bid to facilitate further deployment of renewable energy sources. With a nominal output of 40 MW and a storage capacity of 80 MWh, the facility marks the latest in a series of energy storage investments by MET Group across Europe.

In 2023, the Energy Policy and Planning Office (EPPO) partnered with relevant agencies to create an action plan promoting Thailand's battery energy storage industry. Four key areas were targeted: production, usage, laws & standards, and research, development & personnel. . Battery energy storage is widely seen as a vital technology to allow for greater use of intermittent renewable energy (such as wind and solar) within electricity grids. Global energy storage capacity (excluding legacy pumped hydropower) was estimated at about 10 gigawatt-hours (GWh) in 2018. 4 As. . There are plans to increase storage capacity, but it may not be enough for the Kingdom to complete a successful clean energy transition. The government is actively seeking new policy initiatives that enable households to generate and store electricity and then sell excess electricity back to the grid.
