Recently, China's energy storage sector has experienced a two-pronged surge: significant technological advancements coupled with a sharp uptick in market demand. On the technological side, the research team from the Institute of Physics at the Chinese Academy of Sciences has achieved notable progress in enhancing solid-solid interface contact within all-solid-state lithium metal batteries. Meanwhile, the market has witnessed a dramatic rise in demand for energy storage cells. Orders for these cells are already booked solid until next year, and there has been a substantial year-on-year increase in the scale of successful bids. Experts attribute the current scarcity, likened to "a rare chip to secure," to a global surge in demand outpacing supply response. This year, domestic demand for energy storage has surpassed expectations. The influx of new energy sources into the market has further widened the peak-valley electricity price gap, thereby underscoring the heightened commercial value of energy storage projects.
