Large-scale energy storage business
Just because the grid energy storage business was successful overseas, that did not mean it would be in Japan. Also, when it came to EV battery reuse, there were no success stories
Global energy storage capacity was estimated to have reached 36,735MW by the end of 2022 and is forecasted to grow to 353,880MW by 2030. Japan had 1,671MW of capacity in 2022 and this is expected to rise to 10,074MW by 2030. Listed below are the five largest energy storage projects by capacity in Japan, according to GlobalData's power database.
In the commercial space, Japan's battery storage market was valued at USD 593.2 million in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 4.15 billion by 2030. While commercial installations currently dominate revenues, industrial adoption is expected to scale faster. Utility-scale storage is also gaining ground.
The Nishi-Sendai Substation – BESS is a 40,000kW lithium-ion battery energy storage project located in Sendai, Miyagi, Japan. The rated storage capacity of the project is 20,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology.
