Britain has taken a lead in this aspect with the UK government, in collaboration with the Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (OFGEM), launching a plan in July to introduce a \u2018smart energy system\u2019 in response to developing technology and demands in the sector.<\/p>\n<p>The UK has ambitions to not only develop its own energy storage industry but to export its expertise to the global market. The Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, Greg Clark MP, has further outlined the plan by stating that a smarter energy system will \u201cput UK businesses in a leading position to export smart energy technology and services to the rest of the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As a destination for British enterprises wishing to establish themselves abroad, China offers a number of unique opportunities.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>China\u2019s energy storage industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>China is putting large amounts of capital into developing its energy storage industry. The government has actively promoted \u2018green technology\u2019 as integral to its development process and backed up its plans with expenditure of over USD $400 billion per year on R&amp;D. It is therefore no surprise the country now boasts some of the world\u2019s most impressive new energy projects. Shandong Sacred Sun\u2019s Huadian Tibet Nima renewable energy project is just one example, with the facility now standing alone as the world\u2019s largest solar and diesel micro-grid consisting of a 22MWp photovoltaic power station system and 12MWh lithium ion battery pack. By comparison, Solar Philippines\u2019 self-proclaimed \u2018largest solar, diesel, battery micro-grid\u2019 will only possess an 8MWh energy storage pack.<\/p>\n<p>While hydro-power remains the overwhelming majority contributor to Chinese energy storage, Chinese investment into lithium, both domestically and abroad, has led to further development of the Li-Ion battery, used in devices ranging from laptop computers to smartphones, as the fastest growing form of energy storage with a year-on-year increase in usage of around 70 percent since 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Some of the country\u2019s major tech and automation companies, including Huawei and BYD are also fully invested into finding new energy storage solutions, adding to a market loaded with potential.<\/p>\n<p>In addition a very complimentary set of policies and regulations have been put in place to encourage both domestic and foreign tech companies to thrive in the Chinese market.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>2015\u2019s Thirteenth Five-Year Planisted energy storage as one of the top 100 national strategic projects, marking the first time it has been included.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2><strong>Liberal Chinese Policy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_4678\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4678\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4678\" src=\"http:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_366001310.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"395\" srcset=\"https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_366001310.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_366001310-300x119.jpg 300w, https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_366001310-768x303.jpg 768w, https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_366001310-585x231.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4678\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The government is actively promotig \u2018green technology\u2019 and spending USD $400 billion per year on R&amp;D<\/p><\/div>\n<p>2015\u2019s Thirteenth Five-Year Planisted energy storage as one of the top 100 national strategic projects, marking the first time it has been included. This coincided with the publishing of the \u2018Energy Development Thirteenth Five-Year Plan\u2019, promoting the implementation of high-efficiency, high-capacity and fully-integrated systems. This development indicates the energy storage industry\u2019s official inclusion into the central national planning scheme.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, two national policies central to the sector\u2019s future are the Energy Technology Revolution Innovation Plan (2016-2030) and Made In China (MIC) 2025 (see <a href=\"http:\/\/cbbc.org\">CBBC<\/a>\u2019s report on MIC 2025 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cbbc.org\/mic2025\/\">here<\/a>). Both have reiterated the need to focus on \u2018greener\u2019 energy solutions in the form of hydroelectricity, compressed air energy storage and Li-Ion batteries to name a few. Hydro-power has been the biggest contributor to China\u2019s operational energy storage capacity, although it is electrochemical energy storage, and in particular Li-Ion batteries that have seen the biggest growth in 2016.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Opportunities for British enterprises<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The message broadcast to the world through MIC 2025 and Xi Jinping\u2019s \u2018China Dream\u2019 is that China is transitioning away from the <em>shanzhaiism<\/em> or \u2018borrowing\u2019 culture it has followed since \u2018opening up\u2019, and is ready to establish itself as the principal innovator on the world stage. However, while there is no doubt that China has the scale and resources to make this leap, it lacks the services and market mechanisms present in the UK needed to fulfil its potential. And it is in this that a clear opportunity for British companies to aid China\u2019s technological and innovative development is to be found.<\/p>\n<p>Chinese enterprises have a relative lack of experience in areas such as network installation and management, and, echoing Mr Clark\u2019s call for progress in the UK, the Chinese government has highlighted the need for effective and efficient \u2018smart\u2019 energy storage systems. It should be expected that opportunities for cooperation in this area will arise both in the UK and China.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4677\" style=\"width: 1010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4677\" class=\"size-full wp-image-4677\" src=\"http:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_128337029.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_128337029.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_128337029-300x124.jpg 300w, https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_128337029-768x317.jpg 768w, https:\/\/focus.cbbc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/shutterstock_128337029-585x242.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-4677\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">China will focus on operational energy storage capacity using electrochemical energy storage and Li-Ion batteries<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Furthermore, in line with government plans to modernise the country, a number of innovation centres have already been established with more planned both domestically and abroad. Catering for both Chinese and foreign enterprises, these centres hope to stimulate increased cooperation, chances to exchange ideas, and possible investment opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Shenzhen, China\u2019s answer to Silicon Valley and home to some of the country\u2019s biggest tech giants, has emerged as a hotbed for innovation, developing a number of these centres as incubators and technology parks in order to establish a network of ambitious companies with access to world-class facilities, in exchange for affordable membership and rental fees.<\/p>\n<p>The strong local supply chain for advanced energy storage systems, in addition to the city\u2019s free-trade zone, marks it out as a prime destination for British companies wishing to enter the Chinese energy storage market.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, new energy solutions related to battery life, efficiency and charging capabilities are additional areas in which British companies wishing to enter the market should find success as they address China\u2019s growing energy capacity concerns.<\/p>\n<p>China\u2019s policy focus on \u2018green technology\u2019 especially applies to the recycling and reuse of batteries. The aforementioned Li-Ion batteries, key to the future of many markets, retain 80 percent charge even after they are deemed too worn out for usage in electronic vehicles (EVs) and may be used to prop up grids relying on unstable energy sources such as wind and solar power. British companies that provide battery recycling solutions will not only find liberalising regulations in China, but high demand for this kind of technology.<\/p>\n<p>Multi-sector application is also highly attractive to Chinese investors due to the liberal policies now in place in both the electronic vehicle and smart city technology markets. However, companies wishing to enter the Chinese market via a joint venture should ensure that their intellectual property interests are first secure.<\/p>\n<p>All across China efforts are being made either in the form of policy changes or government targets to help the country adopt cleaner and new energy solutions in the coming years. Factor in a national operational energy storage capacity that is experiencing a year-on-year growth of five percent, reaching 24.4 Gwh in 2016, enterprises providing clean and efficient energy storage solutions are needed more than ever. Britain could be the country that provides them.<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/cbbc.org\">CBBC<\/a> continues to monitor trends and developments in the energy storage industry and will update members of the latest information available.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Charging into the future by Jake Mendrik In 2017 a number of countries have actively promoted innovation within the energy storage industry in order to take advantage of new technologies and ensure the maximum potential of their energy-producing capabilities.
