Newly installed solar power-related ESS capacity South Korea 2017-2022
Only two megawatt-hours worth of capacity of new solar power-related energy storage systems (ESS) were installed in South Korea in 2022. In comparison, the newly installed capacity of solar power-related ESS stood at over 2.7 gigawatt-hours in 2020. Investment in energy storage systems in the country drastically declined in the last couple of years, partly due to concerns of fires related to ESS facilities.
