As China achieves scaled development in the green energy sector, “new energy” remains a key topic at 2025 Two Sessions, China’s most important annual event outlining national progress and future policies.

This year, “new-type energy storage” has emerged as a buzzword.

Unlike traditional energy, new energy sources typically fluctuate with natural conditions. Advanced storage solutions can store excess power during peak generation and release it when needed, enabling greater reliance on renewables as a primary energy source. As the world’s largest supplier of green technologies and the leading investor in overseas renewable projects, China’s energy storage solutions offer new hope to power-deficient regions worldwide, whether due to geographical challenges, limited infrastructure capacity, or conflict.

Through decentralized energy storage, China contributes to global electrification by enabling remote, resource-limited communities in developing countries to access stable electricity through cost-effective projects, fostering economic growth and better living conditions.

On a smaller scale, energy storage is unlocking new economic opportunities for small businesses. By integrating renewable power with agriculture, individuals can store and supply excess energy, enhancing national grid resilience and diversity while generating profit.

China has been a global leader in renewable energy for a decade.

The buzzword “energy storage” at the 2025 Two Sessions underscores China’s strategic focus on building a resilient, sustainable, and diverse energy system, contributing new efforts to a sustainable global future.

The country’s progress in new-type energy storage highlights how innovation can drive both economic and environmental progress worldwide.
