Technical FAQs 4

How many energy storage facilities are there in Europe?

Europe currently has 913 energy storage facilities in operation, with a combined capacity of 67 GW. The predominant technology is mechanical storage (54.6 GW) with pumped storage hydropower plants. However, electrochemical storage, including lithium - ion and flow batteries, is catching up, at 11 GW.

How does energy storage work in the EU?

The main energy storage method in the EU is by far 'pumped storage hydropower', which works by pumping water into reservoirs when there is an electricity surplus in the grid - for example on a sunny or windy day - and releasing it when more energy is needed.

What is the European energy storage inventory?

In March 2025, the Commission launched the European Energy Storage Inventory, a real-time dashboard that displays energy storage levels across different European countries. It is the first European-level tool of its kind and offers energy storage data across a full range of technologies.

Which country has the most energy storage projects?

By far, the largest number of projects are located in the United Kingdom – 66 (6,2 GW). Italy is in second place (with 13 projects totaling 1.7 GW), followed by Germany (19 – 1.6 GW), according to the inventory. European Energy Storage Inventory – projects under construction by country
