• The impact on China''s power structure under high renewable energy penetration in 2050 is explored under different scenarios. • Providing valuable policy implications for the
Local governments have also introduced a series of policies to promote the construction of new type energy storage in conjunction with new energy power generation.
In June 2023, China achieved a significant milestone in its transition to clean energy. For the first time, its total installed non-fossil fuel energy power generation capacity surpassed that of fossil fuel energy.
For the first time, its total installed non-fossil fuel energy power generation capacity surpassed that of fossil fuel energy, reaching 50.9%. This shift is largely attributed to
Important step Developing energy storage is an important step in China's transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, while mitigating the effect of new energy's randomness, volatility and intermittence on the grid and managing power supply and demand, he said.
By 2023, an additional 21.5 GW of energy storage had been installed, with over 95% of this capacity being lithium battery-based electrochemical storage (CIAPS, 2024). Several regions in China have already mandated wind and solar power plants to integrate a certain amount of energy storage capacity.
China is rapidly advancing the development of its energy storage industry. In 2020, the total installed energy storage capacity was only 35.6 GW, with electrochemical storage accounting for 3.27 GW (CNESA, 2021).
This flexibility is particularly important in China, which has a large and growing share of wind and solar power in its generation mix. In 2021, wind and solar combined generated 12% of China’s electricity, according to our International Energy Statistics.
