Top 10 energy storage technology manufacturers in China

Renewable energy generation is discontinuous and unstable. Large scale grid connection will bring severe challenges to the security and reliability of power system. Energy storage technology can effectively control the instability of renewable energy power generation and achieve safe and stable power supply.

Therefore, energy storage technology is the key supporting technology for building a new power system with new energy as the main body and achieving the dual carbon goal. Among the new energy storage projects newly put into operation, the top 10 energy storage technology manufacturers in China in terms of installed capacity are: CATL, Caes, Eve Power, Great Power, NARADA, HIGEE, LISHEN, Envision AESC, CALB and ZTT.
