Therefore, it is widely perceived that electricity storage is an essential part of the solution. For example, IRENA (2017) calculates that electricity storage capacity need to grow from an estimated 4.67 TWh in 2017 to at least 11.89 TWh if the share of renewable energy in the energy system doubles by 2030.
