6 FAQs about [North asia no longer needs energy storage]
Will Asia need more gas storage?
Even if all 43 million metric tons per annum (MTPA) of storage under construction or planned is built—and that’s mostly in China—it will be dwarfed by the expected 100 to 125 MTPA of additional LNG capacity by 2030. Therefore, Asia will need to rely increasingly on gas storage in Europe and possibly North America or Russia.
Will Asia's lack of storage increase the risk of LNG oversupply?
As LNG supply grows, Asia’s potential lack of storage will increase the risk of oversupply in Europe, particularly in the third quarter and October, as capacity begins to dry up. Such a risk is already emerging in 2023 even prior to the onslaught of vast amounts of LNG expected to enter the market in the second half of the decade.
Can China develop energy storage technology and industry development?
Under the direction of the national “Guiding Opinions on Promoting Energy Storage Technology and Industry Development” policy, the development of energy storage in China over the past five years has entered the fast track.
Is China's energy storage industry ready for industrialization?
While it is true that the development of China's energy storage industry has moved from a technical verification stage to a new stage of early commercialization, the industry still faces many challenges which hinder development, and true "industrialization" has not yet materialized.
Should Asia store gas regionally?
If Asia wanted to store the gas regionally to enhance security of supply, an additional 35 to 50 bcm of capacity would need to be built. China is putting itself in a position to meet its needs, but the rest of the region remains more vulnerable and cannot assume access to this gas.
Why did Asia slash its share of fossil fuels faster than North America?
SINGAPORE, Dec 5 (Reuters) - Asia boosted clean electricity output and slashed its share of fossil fuels faster than North America and Europe from 2015, data shows, underscoring resistance by Asian nations to a western push to choke private financing for coal-fired power.
