Since the start of the 14th Five-Year Plan period (2021-2025), China's total installed capacity of new energy storage projects has expanded twentyfold. By the end of June this year, capacity had climbed further to 94.91 million kW/222 million kWh, up about 29 percent from the end of 2024.
As China accelerates the shift toward renewable energy and builds a new type of power system, energy storage has become indispensable.
