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.
The latest analysis from SolarPower Europe reveals that, in 2024, Europe installed 21.9 GWh of new battery energy storage systems (BESS), just 15% higher than 2023. The predictions of slower growth has come true, but the details reveal a big shift in where installations are happening.
Europe’s utility-scale energy storage systems (ESS) are on the rise, boasting a robust revenue model. The European large storage market is starting to shape up. According to data from the European Energy Storage Association (EASE), new energy storage installations in Europe reached approximately 4.5GW in 2022.
A new analysis from the latest European Market Outlook for Battery Storage shows that Europe experienced another record-breaking year for battery storage installations, even though the year-on-year growth rate has slowed.
