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.
In March 2025, the Commission launched the European Energy Storage Inventory, a real-time dashboard that displays energy storage levels across different European countries. It is the first European-level tool of its kind and offers energy storage data across a full range of technologies.
The main energy storage method in the EU is by far 'pumped storage hydropower', which works by pumping water into reservoirs when there is an electricity surplus in the grid - for example on a sunny or windy day - and releasing it when more energy is needed.
Particularly noteworthy is the ambitious project in Alfeld (Lower Saxony), which is considered the largest approved storage project in Europe with a performance of 137.5 megawatts and a storage capacity of 275 megawatt hours.
