Chinese battery companies BYD, CATL and EVE Energy are the three largest producers of energy storage batteries, especially the cheaper LFP batteries. This month Rolls-Royce signed a deal with CATL to help deploy the company’s batteries in the EU and the UK.
Most importantly, batteries help accelerate the deployment of renewables, by increasing the promotion of energy generated that is actually used. Without energy storage, the costs of the energy transition would be higher.
Storage batteries are available in a range of chemistries and designs, which have a direct bearing on how fires grow and spread. The applicability of potential response strategies and technology may be constrained by this wide range. Off gassing: toxic and extremely combustible vapors are emitted from battery energy storage systems .
China’s CATL, the world’s largest battery producer, says its energy storage batteries can last for 25 years. Will it save the planet? Not on its own — but grid-scale energy storage is part of the combination of clean energy technologies that is needed to reach net zero.
There is also an abundant supply from Chinese battery producers, which are keen to expand into global markets. One factor that is making battery energy storage cheaper is the falling price of lithium, which is down more than 70 per cent over the past year amid slowing sales growth for electric vehicles.
Batteries offer one solution because they can quickly store and dispatch energy. As installations of wind turbines and solar panels increase — especially in China — energy storage is certain to grow rapidly. They are part of the arsenal of clean energy technologies that will enable a net zero emissions future.
