STUTTGART, GERMANY - The Battery Show Europe, a significant event for the battery and electric vehicle technology sectors, is set to incorporate the Energy Storage Summit Germany into its lineup. Scheduled for June 3-5, 2025, at Messe Stuttgart, this addition aims to delve into the German utility-scale energy storage market, which has experienced a substantial growth of 27.9% in gigawatt-capacity over the past year.
Energy Storage Summit Germany emerges from the Energy Storage Summit series and will focus on Germany's burgeoning role in the European storage sector. The country has seen a shift from residential storage solutions to utility-scale installations, reaching 1.7 gigawatts of total installed capacity by the end of 2023, with 16 GWh of storage capacity installed by mid-2024. Further projections by German regulators and Transmission System Operators (TSOs) anticipate an integration of 24 GW of utility-scale energy storage into the grid by 2037.
Andy Colthorpe, Editor of Energy-Storage.News, expressed enthusiasm about the new event, highlighting the synergy between the Energy Storage Summit Germany and The Battery Show Europe. John Lewinski, Vice President of Informa (LON:INF) Markets Engineering, also noted the growing importance of energy storage for The Battery Show's audience and the event's role in enhancing learning and networking opportunities.
The forthcoming summit will address Germany's current regulatory framework, incentives for the proposed 2028 capacity market, trading practices, merchant revenue opportunities, and project development challenges. It will feature key stakeholders, including developers, investors, policymakers, manufacturers, optimisers, and consultants.
The Energy Storage Summit portfolio, consisting of ten global events, connects industry participants across the energy storage supply chain, offering education and innovation forums. The Battery Show, organized by Informa Markets Engineering, is a prominent event for advanced battery technology and is co-located with the Electric & Hybrid Vehicle Technology Expo.
This expansion underscores the growing significance of energy storage in the transition to a more sustainable energy infrastructure and highlights Germany's pivotal role in this sector. The information is based on a press release statement from Informa Markets Engineering.
