Can China scale up energy storage investments?
This study explores the challenges and opportunities of China’s domestic and international roles in scaling up energy storage investments. China aims to increase its share of primary energy from renewable energy sources from 16.6% in to 25% by , as outlined in the nationally determined contribution .
How many energy storage projects were approved in ?
In , there were 136 approved energy storage projects, comprising 131 electrochemical and 5 pumped hydro storage projects.
Will AIIB scale up concessional financing to de-risking energy storage projects?
This means that AIIB would scale up concessional financing to de-risking energy storage projects in its member countries. Through multilateral cooperation, BRI investors could jointly work with AIIB and other MDBs in developing high-quality energy storage supply chains in lower-income countries.
