Solar & Storage Live 2024 took place between September 24th and 26th at the NEC in Birmingham. On day two, Modo’s GB Markets Lead Wendel discussed the current key trends for battery energy storage in Great Britain. This article summarizes that presentation. 1. Battery energy storage capex is falling, a lot
Battery storage is a growing, fast-evolving market as BESS assets are expected to be critical going forward to meet the energy transition.
Battery energy storage buildout has been slower than expected... Capex reductions are good for the long-term pipeline of battery energy storage in GB, but in 2024 buildout has been slower than expected. The amount of new capacity added per quarter increased throughout 2023, with over 1.5 GW of new BESS capacity coming online throughout the year.
The cost of building a new battery energy storage system has fallen by 30% in the last two years. In 2022, a new two-hour system would have cost upwards of £800k/MW to build. In 2024, that figure is £600k/MW. Cost reductions are expected to continue into 2025 and beyond. 2. Lower Capex is offsetting lower revenues
The financing will support the construction of Sheaf Energy Park, a 1.5hr, 249MW/373.5MWh transmission-connected battery energy storage system (BESS) located in Kent, which is expected to become operational in July 2025.
"Fossil-fuel fired plants have traditionally been used to manage these peaks and troughs, but battery energy storage facilities can replace a portion of these so-called peaking power generators over time," a spokesperson said. As more power comes from wind and solar, the need for these batteries and similar storage sites is expected to grow.
As renewable energy capacity grows, we must identify and expand better ways of storing this energy, to avoid waste and deal with demand spikes. Utility companies and …
