[Italian energy storage: 42GWh or 104GWh?] Italian power grid operator Terna has provided two sets of energy storage predictions: a conservative scenario of 42GWh and a benchmark scenario of 104GWh. Behind the gap lies the logic of phased advancement. The cumulative 26GWh from 2028 to 2029 is just the beginning, while the installed capacity of wind, solar, and photovoltaic power has reached 57GW, leaving a huge gap from the target of 107GW by 2030. Although FER X's new policy revitalizes new energy projects, it cannot solve the problem of grid connection and consumption, and energy storage has become a rigid demand. Combined with the downward trend in battery costs and the pressure of power grid regulation, breaking through 100 GWh by 2030 is not a blind expansion, but an inevitable result of energy transformation.

• [Full vanadium energy storage landing in Xinjiang]
• On June 22, 2026, the Three Gorges Group Xinjiang Jimsar Million Photovoltaic Supporting Vanadium Liquid Flow Energy Storage Project was fully put into commercial operation one month ahead of schedule. The project is located in Jimsar County, Changji, with an energy storage capacity of 200000 kilowatts/1 million kilowatt hours, making it the largest all vanadium liquid flow energy storage power station in China. Relying on long-term energy storage technology, the equipment is safe, durable, and easy to expand. The project generates an average of 1.72 billion kilowatt hours of electricity annually, saving 519000 tons of standard coal and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 1.424 million tons.Editor/Gong Ziwei
