Energy storage is one of the key supporting technologies for achieving the “dual carbon” goals. The development and maturity of this industry are crucial for accelerating the construction of a power system dominated by new energy sources. In recent years, thanks to a series of national policies, China’s energy storage industry has grown rapidly, with costs continuously declining and its industrial chain steadily improving, entering an early stage of commercialization. Currently, in addition to challenges related to technology, cost, and industry standards, the sector also faces constraints in terms of institutional mechanisms. For example, there is still a lack of institutional support for independent energy storage market entities, the market-based operation mechanisms for energy storage value have not been fully realized, and there is an absence of coordinated mechanisms for integrating large-scale energy storage into power systems. During the 14th Five-Year Plan period, under the “dual carbon” goals, the energy storage industry holds great potential for market development and offers broader application scenarios. However, its healthy and sustainable growth urgently requires enhanced top-level design and strategic guidance. It is also necessary to accelerate the establishment and improvement of technical application standards, adhere to the principles of independent control over core technologies and diversified development paths, and promote advancements in energy storage technology. At the same time, deepening electricity system reforms, optimizing market designs, and fully recognizing the commodity nature of energy storage in the new power system are key to its healthy development. At the 2022 National Energy Work Conference, the National Energy Administration outlined seven key tasks for energy work, emphasizing the importance of enhancing the regulation capacity of power systems, strengthening the construction of peak-shaving power stations such as pumped storage, promoting the development of new types of energy storage, and optimizing grid dispatching methods—all of which play vital roles in accelerating the green and low-carbon development of energy. Against this backdrop, to achieve the strategic goals of “carbon peak” and “carbon neutrality,” keep pace with the trend of green and low-carbon development, implement national energy transformation initiatives, and accelerate the innovative development of the energy storage industry, the CESC2023 China (Jiangsu) International Energy Storage Conference and Smart Energy Storage Technology and Applications Exhibition will be grandly held in Nanjing. This event is jointly supported by the Jiangsu Provincial Development and Reform Commission, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology, the Jiangsu Provincial Department of Commerce, and State Grid Jiangsu Electric Power Co., Ltd., and is organized by the Jiangsu Energy Storage Industry Association.
