Why now
- SolarPower Europe’s new market figures frame 2025 as a record year with utility-scale leading.
- Industry discussion is focusing on financing as grid-scale projects become the deployment driver.
Why it matters
- EU 2025 additions (27.1 GWh) underscore the pace of storage deployment and the shift to utility-scale.
- Financing conditions are a key determinant of how quickly grid-scale BESS can be built out.
- Residential storage softness highlights sensitivity to electricity prices and support schemes.
