6 FAQs about [Analysis report on the causes of overcapacity in the energy storage industry]

Does overcapacity exist in the PV industry?

Wang and Luo (2018) find that not only holistic overcapacity but also structural overcapacity exists in the PV industry, indicating that capacity in high-end industries is insufficient and excessive in mid- to low-end industries. Overcapacity can hinder the orderly development of renewable energy (Río and Janeiro, 2016).

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; 2024). But the risks for power-system security of the converse problem — excessive energy storage — have been mostly overlooked.

Which industries report overcapacity?

Estimated results for capacity utilization ratio. The results indicate that all wind, PV, and biomass industries report overcapacity. The degree of overcapacity for the PV industry is the most serious, while that for the biomass industry is the lowest.

What causes overcapacity in biomass industry?

According to model (V) of Table 6, the return on assets ratio for the biomass industry and the degree of government subsidies have no significant influence on the capacity utilization ratio, which means neither enterprises' profitability level nor direct subsidies are the main causes for overcapacity in the industry.

Which factors affect the overcapacity of wind energy and biomass enterprises?

Second, the overcapacity of the wind energy and biomass enterprises is more affected by external factors. Overcapacity in the wind energy industry is mainly caused by excessive government subsidies, while the decisive factor leading to the overcapacity of biomass industry include an imbalance in local and foreign market structures.

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.
