As global investments in energy storage systems continue to grow, Türkiye has positioned itself as a key player, with two cell production facilities and nearly 100 lithium-ion battery production factories of various scales actively operating across the country.
New facilities capable of producing up to 5 gigawatt-hours of cells and batteries will be established in Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, and Kocaeli, Usta said, adding that agreements signed this year alone exceeded $1 billion in investments. With these new additions, the total number of battery production facilities in Türkiye will reach 11.
Bank of lithium ion batteries at the University of California San Diego Center for Energy Research in La Jolla, California, U.S. (AFP Photo) I nvestments in Türkiye 's battery sector surpassed $1 billion this year, driven by incentives and regulations aimed at achieving an 80-gigawatt-hour storage target by 2030.
However, Usta noted that despite draft regulations, the legal framework for battery and storage power plants is still evolving. The first approvals are expected next year. Türkiye’s battery imports remained steady at around $1.1 billion, similar to last year.
Looking ahead to 2025, Usta predicted an influx of new companies, both domestic and foreign, joining the industry, a testament to Türkiye's potential for energy independence and global competitiveness. The association is set to host another battery summit in October next year.
Under the HIT-30 investment program, Türkiye seeks to become a regional hub for battery technology, with plans to build a capacity of 80 gigawatt-hours by 2030.
The global residential solar storage and inverter market is experiencing rapid expansion, with demand increasing by over 300% in the past three years. Home energy storage solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new residential solar installations worldwide. North America leads with 38% market share, driven by homeowner energy independence goals and federal tax credits that reduce total system costs by 26-30%. Europe follows with 32% market share, where standardized home storage designs have cut installation timelines by 55% compared to custom solutions. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with manufacturing innovations reducing system prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets are adopting residential storage for backup power and energy cost reduction, with typical payback periods of 4-7 years. Modern home installations now feature integrated systems with 10-30kWh capacity at costs below $700/kWh for complete residential energy solutions.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving home solar storage and inverter performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal performance with 40% less energy loss, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $1,200/kW to $650/kW since 2022. Smart integration features now allow home systems to operate as virtual power plants, increasing homeowner savings by 35% through time-of-use optimization and grid services. Safety innovations including multi-stage protection and thermal management systems have reduced insurance premiums by 25% for solar storage installations. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple battery additions at just $600/kWh for incremental storage. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with residential projects typically achieving payback in 5-8 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard home systems (5-10kWh) starting at $8,000 and premium systems (15-20kWh) from $12,000, with financing options available for homeowners.
