Energy Storage Systems in Asia
Building fully integrated regional grids, long-distance transmission lines and grid-scale storage technologies is imperative for
Southeast Asia's exponential growth in electricity demand, averaging over 6% annually over the past two decades, has created an urgent need for reliable and flexible energy storage solutions. This surge in demand is primarily driven by increasing ownership of household appliances and rising consumption of goods and services across the region.
Countries like Singapore, the Philippines, and Thailand are leading the adoption of battery energy storage systems technology, with numerous projects under development. The technology's versatility in applications ranging from grid services to behind-the-meter installations for commercial and residential use is driving its adoption.
Battery Energy Storage system is defined as devices enabling energy from renewables, like solar and wind, to be stored and released when customers need power most. The Asia-Pacific battery energy storage system market is segmented by technology type, application, and geography.
The ASEAN bloc has set the targets of 23% renewable energy in its Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES) and 35% renewable energy in ASEAN installed power capacity by 2025. This means that energy storage is required. Additionally, without BESS acceptance on a larger level, the needed funds won't materialise, and fewer BESS will be built.
