The UK battery storage market is set to grow significantly, with over 96 GWh of capacity submitted for 2025, marking a 25% increase from the previous year. The surge in applications, particularly in July, is largely attributed to large-capacity projects and upcoming grid reform deadlines, while the rejection rate for applications has notably decreased. Increased interest in long-duration energy storage technologies, such as vanadium flow batteries, indicates a potential shift in the sector as it matures.
