The massive deployment of the so-called new energy capacity—to differentiate from pumped-hydro storage—is part of a new work plan issued by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the National Energy Administration (NEA) for the period between 2025 and 2027.. The massive deployment of the so-called new energy capacity—to differentiate from pumped-hydro storage—is part of a new work plan issued by the National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC) and the National Energy Administration (NEA) for the period between 2025 and 2027.. China plans to have its battery storage capacity more than double to 180 gigawatts (GW) by 2027 in a new plan aimed at attracting $35.1 billion (250 billion Chinese yuan), the authorities said on Friday. The overcapacity in batteries and solar cells will continue to drive global prices down. . Just look at the numbers – in January 2025 alone, the 12GWh mega-tender by China National Nuclear Corporation (CNNC) saw industry heavyweights like Sungrow and Hyperstrong clinch major contracts [1]. But what does this mean for the global energy storage market? Let's unpack the tea leaves.
