How will Primeo energy contribute to the Swiss energy transition?
We are delighted to be taking a significant step in the Swiss energy transition together with Primeo Energie. In Kappel, in the canton of Solothurn, we will install one of the largest battery storage systems in Switzerland with a total capacity of 65 megawatt hours.
What are the main drivers of energy storage growth in the world?
The main driver is the increasing need for system flexibility and storage around the world to fully utilise and integrate larger shares of variable renewable energy (VRE) into power systems. IEA. Licence: CC BY 4.0 Utility-scale batteries are expected to account for the majority of storage growth worldwide.
Will new hydropower projects add more storage capacity to existing reservoirs?
In the IEA Special Hydropower Market Report (IEA, 2021f), the outlook to indicated that adding PSH capabilities to existing reservoirs would add more storage capability than new projects.
How does China's new remuneration scheme affect PSH capacity growth?
China alone accounts for three-quarters of global PSH capacity growth thanks to the government’s long-term targets and new remuneration scheme aimed at reducing VRE curtailment. Concentrated solar power (CSP) storage expands by only 2.6 GW during the forecast period.
