According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) and BloombergNEF, battery storage was the most invested-in energy technology in 2023 with the biggest-ever annual growth in deployments recorded. The organisations have each just published a new report apiece, the IEA focusing on battery storage and BloombergNEF on the wider energy storage market.

AI generated summary

The International Energy Agency (IEA) and BloombergNEF reported that battery storage was the most heavily invested energy technology in 2023, with a significant increase in deployments. The IEA focused on battery storage in its report, while BloombergNEF covered the broader energy storage market, with both highlighting record investments in battery storage worldwide during the year.

In 2023, 42GW of batteries were deployed across various energy storage installations, positioning battery storage as the most invested-in commercially available energy sector technology. BloombergNEF predicts a 60% growth in global deployments in 2024, with the Asia-Pacific region, particularly China, leading the way in energy storage deployments up to 2030. Despite the significant progress in battery storage, both reports emphasized the need for continued policy support, cost reduction, and increased manufacturing capacity to meet global emissions targets and scale up deployment further.
