In 2019, 46% of all commissioned residential rooftop PV systems had already been paired with battery storage systems. Remarkably, this share surged to 77% in 2023, indicating a significant upward trajectory of the trend toward combining PV residential rooftop systems with battery storage in Germany.
Fig. 6 shows the development of the market shares of battery technologies used in home storage systems in Germany since 2013. The two most commonly used battery technologies during this time arelead-acid and lithium-ion batteries.
Since 2015, statistically, every second small PV system (<30 kWp) has been installed together with a battery. By the end of 2017, more than85,000 home storage systems with a cumulative usable storage capacity of about 600 MW h and a total output of more than 200 MW were connected to the German distribution grids.
To date, most battery storage systems in the German electricity system have been used exclusively to optimize self-consumption. Consequently, an exponentially growing number of homeowners and companies store solar power for times when solar generation is low.
