By July 2025, Trina Storage, the energy storage arm of the world's largest solar company, Trinasolar, will have completed more than 2. 4 gigawatt hours of utility-scale storage capacity in the Asia-Pacific area. BloombergNEF estimates that 16 GWh of new Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) capacity. . This review explores the development of energy storage technologies and governance frameworks in the Asia-Pacific region, where rapid economic growth and urbanisation drive the demand for sustainable energy solutions. Energy storage systems (ESS) are integral to balancing renewable energy. . Trina Storage, the energy storage division of global solar leader Trinasolar, has reached a major milestone with its installed capacity of large-scale energy storage systems surpassing 2. This achievement. .

Energy storage mitigates renewable energy curtailment by absorbing excess electricity generated during periods of high renewable output and low demand or grid constraints, then releasing it when demand is higher or grid capacity is available. . As the penetration of variable renewable energy increases, curtailment of solar PV generation will only increase. Since curtailment will almost always be cheaper than investing in new transmission capacity or new grid-scale storage, curtailed energy should be rewarded, so that PV investment. . curtailment is emerging as a common challenge facing a growing number of power systems. At its core, curtailment is a symptom of an insuficiently flexible power system. This reduces the need to limit renewable generation. .
