Commercial and industrial (C&I) ESS is experiencing a surge in growth, entering a phase of rapid development. The increase in installations for utility-scale ESS far outpaces that of other types. In the realm of residential energy storage, projections for new installations in 2024 stand at 11GW/20.9GWh, reflecting a modest 5% and 11% increase.
The Energy Storage Academy was established to create a space for knowledge-sharing on energy storage. The academy is the platform which disseminates to World Bank clients the knowledge generated by the different working groups of the ESP. During 2020 and 2021, 39 countries participated and 16 have projects receiving WB support.
The Energy Storage program provides operational support to clients by working with World Bank teams to advance the IDA20 Energy Policy Commitment of developing battery storage in at least 15 countries (including at least 10 fragile and conflict-affected situations).
In the realm of residential energy storage, projections for new installations in 2024 stand at 11GW/20.9GWh, reflecting a modest 5% and 11% increase. With the decline in both power and natural gas prices, observations from 2023 installations suggest a diminishing sense of urgency for residential installations.
In the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), the Energy Storage Program's support was critical in preparing the Regional Electricity Access and BEST Project.
Regarding ESS types, commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage systems are entering a phase of swift development, surpassing the incremental growth of utility-scale installations and other ESS types by a significant margin.

Energy storage
Grid-scale storage refers to technologies connected to the power grid that can store energy and then supply it back to the grid at a more advantageous time – for example, at night, when no solar power is available, or during a weather event that disrupts electricity generation. The most widely-used technology is pumped-storage hydropower, where water is pumped into a reservoir and …
