While around 254 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity were generated from renewable energy in Germany in 2022, 600 TWh of electricity are expected to come from renewable sources by 2030. Germany is particularly dependent on a market ramp-up of energy storage systems, especially battery storage systems. What role do energy storage systems play?
IV.C. Large-scale storage systems In 2022, a record of 47 LSS with a battery energy of 0.47 GWh and a power of 0.43 GW were installed in Germany, showing an increase of 910% in terms of battery energy. By the end of 2022, 149 LSS with a cumulative battery energy of 1.2 GWh and a power of 1.07 GW were installed.
Germany boasts a dense landscape of world-leading research institutes and universities active in the energy storage sector. They work closely together with industry to bring innovations to the market. The federal government supports research and development in the energy storage, hydrogen, fuel cell, and electric vehicle sectors.
In comparison to 2021, the market for home storage systems (HSS) grew by 52% in terms of battery energy in 2022 and is by far the largest stationary storage market in Germany. We estimate that about 220,000 HSS (1.9 GWh / 1.2 GW) were installed solely in 2022.
While the demand for energy storage is growing across Europe, Germany remains the European lead target market and the first choice for companies seeking to enter this fast-developing industry. The country stands out as a unique market, development platform and export hub.
