Technical FAQs 4

How many battery energy storage systems were installed in Europe in 2024?

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.

How many megawatts of energy storage were installed in Europe in 2024?

Historic and forecasted megawatt installs of energy storage across Europe. Image: EASE / LCP Delta. A total of 11.9GW of energy storage across all scales and technologies was installed in Europe in 2024, bringing cumulative installations to 89GW.

How does energy storage work in the EU?

The main energy storage method in the EU is by far 'pumped storage hydropower', which works by pumping water into reservoirs when there is an electricity surplus in the grid - for example on a sunny or windy day - and releasing it when more energy is needed.

How much does battery storage cost in Europe?

The landscape of utility-scale battery storage costs in Europe continues to evolve rapidly, driven by technological advancements and increasing demand for renewable energy integration. As we’ve explored, the current costs range from €250 to €400 per kWh, with a clear downward trajectory expected in the coming years.
