Global spending on batteries for power sector storage is set to reach USD 66 billion this year. Nuclear investment is making a comeback, rising by 50% over the past five years, and approvals of new gas-fired power are rising. Despite policy changes and uncertainty in the world's two largest markets, the US and China, the sector continues to grow as developers push forward with larger and larger utility-scale projects. 3 trillion, a 2% rise in real terms on 2024. 2 trillion is going collectively to. . In February 2025, China shelved a requirement that new domestic wind and solar projects be bundled with energy storage. Instead, they now had to compete on the open market. And. . The energy storage sector maintained its upward trajectory in 2024, with estimates indicating that global energy storage installations rose by more than 75%, measured by megawatt-hours (MWh), year-over-year in 2024 and are expected to go beyond the terawatt-hour mark before 2030.
