Clean Energy Technology Observatory: Batteries for Energy Storage in the European Union – 2022 Status Report on Technology Development, Trends, Value Chains and Markets

cover
This report is an output of the Clean Energy Technology Observatory (CETO). CETO’s objective is to provide an evidence-based analysis feeding the policy making process and hence increasing the effectiveness of R&I policies for clean energy technologies and solutions. It monitors EU research and innovation activities on clean energy technologies needed for the delivery of the European Green Deal; and assesses the competitiveness of the EU clean energy sector and its positioning in the global energy market. CETO is being implemented by the Joint Research Centre for DG Research and Innovation in coordination with DG Energy. Batteries are needed in the context of Green Deal and the REPowerEU plan to meet our objective for climate neutrality, to reduce dependency on fuel imports as well as to ensure maximum use of renewable electricity and reduce curtailments. Over 50 million electric vehicles are expected on the EU’s roads by 2030 (at least 1.5 TWh of batteries) and over 80 GW / 160 GWh of stationary batteries. By 2050 the EU’s entire car fleet of 270 million vehicles should be zero-emission (mostly electric). E-mobility is the main driver of demand for batteries; lithium-ion batteries are expected to dominate the market well beyond 2030 but developments in other technologies will be continued in parallel.
