Over 100 nations and organisations commit to deploy 1,500 GW of energy storage, double global grid investments, and develop 25 million kilometres of grid infrastructure by 2030.
The COP29 Global Energy Storage and Grids Pledge has already gained the support of 58 countries, including major players from all continents like Brazil, Kenya, the USA, Ukraine, Pakistan, Morocco, Uruguay, Congo, Peru, Venezuela, Malaysia, Korea, Singapore, New Zealand, numerous European countries, and dozens of organisations. These signatories are taking the lead in implementing the ambitious target of tripling renewables agreed at COP28, with action-oriented goals for grids and storage set by the COP29 Presidency: deploying 1,500 GW of energy storage, doubling global grid investments, and developing 25 million kilometres of grid infrastructure by 2030.
Beyond the pledge, governments must raise their ambitions for long duration energy storage where 1TW is required by 2030, and adopt enabling policy and regulatory reforms that will drive investment and accelerate the development of grid and storage technologies.
