The total pipeline for UK energy storage is now at 61.5GW across 1,319 sites. Image: Solar Media Market Research The graphic above shows the submitted capacity of energy storage projects by project size and by quarter; the total pipeline has now reached 61.5GW across 1,310 sites.
Indeed, the UK’s energy storage pipeline increased substantially by 34.5GW in 2022. By the end of the year, 2.4GW/2.6GWh of battery storage sites have now been connected in total. This article discusses the significant growth of the energy storage pipeline in the past year and what to expect in the coming years.
In 2022, the United Kingdom added a record 800MWh of new utility energy storage capacity, representing the highest annual deployment rate to date. In fact, the UK’s energy storage pipeline increased by 34.5GW in 2022. In 2017, there was only one 50MW project in the UK, whereas in 2021 and 2022, each year saw the installation of nine 50MW projects.
The graphic above shows the built capacity of energy storage in the UK by project size by year where 2022 deployment levels exceeded the 2021 annual installed capacity of 617MWh. The first major utility-scale battery storage project was energised in 2017 – a 50MW/25MWh project in Pelham, developed and owned by Statera Energy.
Over 2.6GW/4.3GWh of energy storage projects are currently under construction and will be completed within the next 18 months. The annual planned capacity for 2022 is a record-breaking 20.7GW across 295 sites, including some 500MW and 1GW projects.
There is now 2.4GW/2.6GWh across 161 sites of operational energy storage in the UK. 20.2GW have been approved in planning, including 33 sites of 100MW or more, meaning these projects are unlikely to be affected by any future (possible) planning changes. These projects are expected to be completed within the next 3-4 years.
