Europe installed 10GW of energy storage in 2023
Europe has seen its first year when energy storage deployments by power capacity exceeded 10GW in 2023. The eighth annual edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES) was published last
Energy storage (2024)
The International Energy Agency (IEA) said last month that grid-scale energy storage is now the fastest-growing of all energy technologies. It estimates that 80 gigawatts of new energy storage capacity will be added in 2025 — eight times the amount added in 2021. Europe''s had startups working on energy storage for a number of years.
Case study: EUR1.29 billion ECA-backed financing for

6 FAQs about [Energy storage europe Angola]
Should Angola invest in energy storage solutions?
With the ongoing solar projects under development in Angola with an installed capacity amounting to 500 MW, it is urgent to start thinking about efficient energy storage solutions. What structural challenges must be addressed for Angola to seize its renewable energy potential?
Can Angola deploy pumped-storage hydroelectricity & hydrogen solutions?
Fernando Prioste, CEO of COBA Group, talks to The Energy Year about Angola’s potential for deploying pumped-storage hydroelectricity and hydrogen solutions as it develops a robust energy industry and the central role of COBA Group in the country’s power arena.
Can a gas grid be used in Angola?
This is not possible in Angola as there is no gas grid, but the hydrogen obtained from renewable energies can be shipped overseas or converted into ammonium. In turn, this chemical compound can be used as an energy storage component that could be exported or used for the fertiliser industry.
Can Angola achieve energy self-sufficiency?
Angola has everything it needs to achieve energy self-sufficiency through renewable sources – not only water, but also sun and wind. With these three natural resources, Angola could achieve the transition from oil and gas to renewable energies, and then boost its energy self-sufficiency.
Why is energy storage important in the EU?
It can also facilitate the electrification of different economic sectors, notably buildings and transport. The main energy storage method in the EU is by far 'pumped hydro' storage, but battery storage projects are rising. A variety of new technologies to store energy are also rapidly developing and becoming increasingly market-competitive.
When will Europe's energy storage capacity reach 10GW?
Europe has seen its first year when energy storage deployments by power capacity exceeded 10GW in 2023, according to consultancy LCP Delta.
