Energy Storage . New Zealand already has a low emissions electricity system, with significant production from both hydropower and geothermal sources. and only plans to release one towards the end of 2024.
As New Zealand electrifies, more grid-scale batteries will support the growing renewable energy supply. Meridian Energy is building a 100MW (200MWh) battery near Ruakākā in sunny Northland. This battery is
The New Energy Outlook presents BloombergNEF''s long-term energy and climate scenarios for the transition to a low-carbon economy. Anchored in real-world sector and country transitions, it provides an independent set of credible scenarios covering electricity, industry, buildings and transport, and the key drivers shaping these sectors until 2050.
We also expect battery storage to set a record for annual capacity additions in 2024. We expect U.S. battery storage capacity to nearly double in 2024 as developers report plans to add 14.3 GW of battery storage to the existing 15.5 GW this year. In 2023, 6.4 GW of new battery storage capacity was added to the U.S. grid, a 70% annual increase.
A total 3.8GW/9.9GWh of energy storage was deployed in the US in the third quarter of 2024, according to Wood Mackenzie’s US Energy Storage Monitor.
Texas, with an expected 6.4 GW, and California, with an expected 5.2 GW, will account for 82% of the new U.S. battery storage capacity. Developers have scheduled the Menifee Power Bank (460.0 MW) at the site of the former Inland Empire Energy Center natural gas-fired power plant in Riverside, California, to come on line in 2024.
Developers currently plan to expand U.S. battery capacity to more than 30 gigawatts (GW) by the end of 2024, a capacity that would exceed those of petroleum liquids, geothermal, wood and wood waste, or landfill gas. Two states with rapidly growing wind and solar generating fleets account for the bulk of the capacity additions.
As at January 1st 2024, New Zealand’s gas reserves dropped 20 per cent (335 PJ) to 1,300 PJ. Of this decrease: 44 per cent (147 PJ) was due to gas extraction and use in the 2023 calendar year. 30 per cent (100 PJ) was due to reserves downgraded to contingent resources3.
This addition would be 55% more added capacity than the 40.4 GW added in 2023 (the most since 2003) and points to a continued rise in industry activity. We expect solar to account for the largest share of new capacity in 2024, at 58%, followed by battery storage, at 23%. Solar.
