The Sao Tome energy storage initiative isn't just about big batteries. We're talking: Pumped hydro using old volcanic craters (nature's perfect battery cases!) Case in point: The ILÚ Battery Park combines solar with lithium-ion storage, providing 24/7 power to 15,000 homes. [pdf]
São Tomé and Príncipe will have a new photovoltaic power station to produce more than 10MW of energy, in a 60.7 million dollar project co-financed by the World Bank, the African Development Bank and Japan. The project will last five years and will start in March. [pdf]
At its core, the system combines solar photovoltaic arrays with a flow battery storage setup that could power 15,000 homes. But here's the kicker—they're using retired EV batteries from Europe, giving old power packs new purpose under the African sun [1]. [pdf]
BloombergNEF forecasts a record 94 GW (247 GWh) of utility-scale storage in 2025—a 35% rise—driven by China’s storage mandates. US tariffs, policy shifts and LFP dominance will drive growth to 220 GW/972 GWh by 2035. [pdf]

Currently, energy storage stocks are a relatively safe investmentto make for the future, and if trends hold, they have solid potential for growth. However, if this doesn’t appear to be a good fit for your investme. In 2025 to date, approximately 1,405MW of new battery storage capacity has been commissioned, already surpassing the 2024 total of 1,249MW. According to EnergyPulse’s research there is approximately 6.5GW of capacity currently under construction and over 60GW of capacity currently consented. [pdf]
Portugal’s Ministry of Energy has announced that it has allocated €100 million ($104.2 million) to 43 energy storage projects which should be installed by the end of 2025. A total of 79 applications were vying for grant support secured under the country’s Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP). [pdf]
Georgia Power has unveiled ambitious plans to invest significantly in new generation capacity and battery energy storage systems (BESS) across the state—particularly in Floyd and Bartow counties—to meet rising demand and transition toward cleaner, more reliable energy sources. [pdf]
What Does Green Energy Storage Cost in 2025? In 2025, you’re looking at an average cost of about $152 per kilowatt-hour (kWh) for lithium-ion battery packs, which represents a 7% increase since 2021. [pdf]
