6 FAQs about [Energy storage mandatory configuration cancelled]

How will the energy storage mandate impact China?

S&P Global estimates that the storage mandate has driven between 50 and 75% of domestic demand. With China accounting for around 56% of the global energy storage demand in 2024, the impact of such a policy change will be massive.

Is the energy storage mandate a big change?

This is a big change towards rationalization of renewables but hidden within that is a removal of the energy storage mandate,” George Hilton, research and analysis manager at S&P Global, tells ESS News. S&P Global estimates that the storage mandate has driven between 50 and 75% of domestic demand.

How will China's energy storage policy affect global demand?

“China was on-track to install over 60% of all utility scale storage globally in 2025 and so in the absence of further policy changes, about 45% of global demand has just been wiped away,” Hilton says. The ripple effect on the global demand-supply balance will involve further downward pressure on energy storage prices.

Will battery storage reverberate through global supply chain?

S&P Global expects the move to reverberate through the global battery storage supply chain, further driving down prices already at historic lows. From ESS News New renewable energy plants in China will no longer be required to build storage in order to secure development rights and grid connection.

Why is the energy storage industry shrinking?

Under the influence of policy shifts, technological iterations, price competition, and other multiple factors, the energy storage industry continues to show a trend of stronger leading enterprises and shrinking living space for small and medium-sized manufacturers.

How will a new battery energy supply chain affect prices?

S&P Global expects the move to reverberate throughout the global battery energy storage supply chain, further driving down prices that are already at historically low levels. New renewable energy plants in China will no longer be required to build storage in order to secure development rights and grid connection.
