is the energy storage industry overcapacity?
📌

What is the market situation for energy storage?

The market situation for energy storage is different than for traditional generation. A storage device designed exclusively to provide ancillary services has no energy market based opportunity cost. As a result, if there is enough of this energy storage to completely supply the specific ancillary service needed, the market price collapses to zero.

📌

Is excessive energy storage a problem?

Spyros Foteinis highlights the acknowledged problem that an insufficient capacity to store energy can result in generated renewable energy being wasted (Nature 632, 29; ). But the risks for power-system security of the converse problem — excessive energy storage — have been mostly overlooked.

📌

Is excessive energy storage a threat to China's power system?

But the risks for power-system security of the converse problem — excessive energy storage — have been mostly overlooked. China plans to install up to 180 million kilowatts of pumped-storage hydropower capacity by . This is around 3.5 times the current capacity, and equivalent to 8 power plants the size of China’s Three Gorges Dam.

📌

Why is energy storage oversupply a problem?

The expansion is driven mainly by local governments and lacks coordination with new energy stations and the power grid. In some regions, a considerable storage oversupply could lead to conflicts in power-dispatch strategies across timescales and jurisdictions, increasing the risk of system instability and large-scale blackouts.
