“At Energy Storage Canada we’re excited to see the IESO’s announcement of more than 700 MW of energy storage projects as the next step in Canada’s largest energy storage procurement to date,” said Justin Rangooni, Executive Director, Energy Storage Canada.
And following COP 29 last month, Canada, alongside 50 other countries, including Germany, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom, and the United States, endorsed a voluntary pledge and committed to pursue efforts towards a collective goal to deploy 1,500 gigawatts of energy storage globally by 2030 – more than six times the capacity of 2022.
With a 68% increase in energy storage worldwide in 2022 and additional market commitments bringing the expected global installations to 130GW by 2023, its unsurprising awareness of the technology is on the rise. Some technologies, like pumped hydro, have a long history in Canada.
Energy storage – BESS and beyond – is going to be critical to Canada’s transition, so we know we need to get these projects right. Together we will. You can find a copy of the full report HERE on ESC’s website. Canada’s current installed capacity of energy storage is approximately 1 GW.
The announcement is part of the province’s ongoing procurement for 2500 MW of energy storage to support the decarbonization and electrification of Ontario’s grid, which was originally announced in October, 2022.
In addition to BESS projects, there are also many Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) technology-based projects advancing in Canada such as compressed air, pumped hydro and other non-lithium ion battery chemistries. About Energy Storage Canada: Energy Storage Canada is the only national voice for energy storage in Canada today.
