4 FAQs about Berne 2025 energy storage slowdown

How big will energy storage be in 2025?

BNEF forecasts that global energy storage additions will reach 92 GW or 247 GWh in 2025, excluding pumped hydro. This marks a 23 percent increase in gigawatts over 2024, reflecting robust growth across established and emerging markets.

Will battery storage grow in 2025?

In the United States, the 2022 introduction of the Inflation Reduction Act included an investment tax credit for stand-alone storage. Since then we have seen huge growth in the sector in the US, and we expect to see this to continue into 2025, with several large-scale battery storage projects set to complete in 2025.

How big will energy storage be in 2026?

Looking ahead, global installations are set to climb to 123 GW or 360 GWh in 2026, representing a 33 percent year-on-year increase. Between 2025 and 2035, cumulative energy storage installations are projected to add 1.9 TW or 6.9 TWh of new capacity, alongside 8.7 TW of new solar and 2.0 TW of new wind.

How did the inflation reduction act of 2022 affect energy storage?

Enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (IRA), which contains significant incentives for energy storage, including availability of the investment tax credit and new manufacturing credits, stimulated much of the expansion.
