Energy Storage System Internationalization: Challenges & Risk Cases

This document, presented by TÜV SÜD China, provides a comprehensive overview of the global energy storage market, internationalization challenges, and risk warning cases. It highlights record-high global energy storage shipments, with China, the US, and Europe as major markets, and emerging growth in the Middle East, Australia, and Southeast Asia. Key technology trends include long-duration storage, large battery cells, grid forming, AI integration, fire safety, modular system integration, immersion liquid cooling, multi-level active security, scenario fission (zero-carbon parks, virtual power plants), and high-voltage cascade string types. The document details new international technical compliance challenges, such as German VDE-FNN GFM guidelines, UK grid codes, network information security, large-scale fire risk, bankability assessments, and the EU Battery Regulation requiring battery passports by 2027. It outlines the EU green policy portfolio, including the European Green Deal, Net-Zero Industry Act, Critical Raw Materials Act, and electricity market reforms, aiming to set technical barriers and ensure supply chain security. Global grid connection regulatory requirements are summarized for the EU, Germany, UK, Italy, France, Austria, Spain, Denmark, and Poland, emphasizing the need for compliance with evolving standards.
