欧盟委员会：2025年欧洲储能部署概况报告（英文版）

Core Insights - The report by the European Commission highlights the current status and policy framework of energy storage deployment in Europe, emphasizing its critical role in the energy transition and the challenges faced in development [1][12]. Group 1: Energy Storage Deployment Overview - A total of 2,356 energy storage projects have been identified across Europe, with a combined power capacity of 170.92 GW, of which 70 GW are operational and 97.26 GW are expected to be online by 2030 [20][22]. - Pumped-storage hydropower remains the dominant technology in terms of installed capacity, while lithium-ion batteries are emerging as the leading technology for future installations due to their flexibility and scalability [23][24]. Group 2: Regional Distribution and Applications - Key regions for energy storage deployment include the UK, Germany, Italy, and Spain, with each country focusing on different technologies based on local resources and market demands [2][30]. - The primary applications for energy storage services include ancillary services, arbitrage, and renewable energy integration, with the UK showing a particularly high demand for ancillary services due to its significant renewable energy share [2][30]. Group 3: Policy and Regulatory Framework - The EU's regulatory framework, centered around the European Green Deal, aims to enhance the energy storage environment through various directives and regulations, including a requirement for flexibility assessments by 2025 and a registration system for energy storage batteries by 2027 [24][29]. - Out of 23 EU member states, 17 have included energy storage policies in their national energy and climate plans, although only 6 have set specific targets, indicating a gap in policy implementation [31][25]. Group 4: Market Trends and Future Outlook - The rapid growth of renewable energy sources is driving an increase in energy storage demand, with declining capital expenditures and improved investment returns making energy storage projects more attractive [26][24]. - The report anticipates a significant rollout of storage technologies, particularly batteries, in the next five years, supported by favorable market conditions and technological advancements [26][39].
