There are 147 energy storage projects under construction in Europe, with a total capacity of 14 GW, according to the European Energy Storage Inventory, launched by the European Commission. The European Energy Storage Inventory comprises operational, under construction, permitted, and announced energy storage projects across Europe.
Many European energy storage markets are growing strongly, with 4.9 GW (12.1 GWh) of utility-scale (front-of-the-meter) energy storage deployed in 2024, giving an estimated total of more than 13 GW. Different studies have analysed the likely future paths for the deployment of energy storage in Europe.
The EU, UK, Norway, and Switzerland together are expected to reach 100 GW of installed energy storage later this month, according to new analysis launched on Wednesday by LCP Delta and Energy Storage Europe. Since 2020, Europe's energy storage sector has grown rapidly, with different technologies progressing at varying speeds.
In a larger context, Europe will need a total of 187 GW of energy storage capacity by 2030, including 122 GW of battery storage capacity. These ambitious goals underline the central importance of energy storage for the European energy transition and illustrate the enormous economic potential of this sector in the coming years.

On 13 October 2025 the European Commission adopted Regulation 2025/2052, introducing updated “ecodesign” standards for external power supplies (EPS), portable-battery chargers, wireless chargers / charging pads, and USB-Type-C cables. . External Power Supplies (EPS) are devices used to supply electricity to, and to charge built-in batteries of electronic and electric devices such as laptops, mobile phones, tablets, MP3 players, electronic cigarettes, electric tooth brushes, electric shavers, etc. For products without built-in. . A major shift in the way chargers, adapters, and power accessories are designed, labelled, and sold in the EU — with global implications. Known as 'External Power Supplies', these products are covered by ecodesign regulations that are about to be updated. This facilitates th irement for EPS to have a lifetime of 10 years, an MTBF of 300,000 hours and resistibility requirements. Mandatory durability requirements based on existing standards are. . Summary: Eastern Europe offers cost-efficient manufacturing hubs, skilled labor, and growing renewable energy demand—making it ideal for assembling outdoor power supplies.
