These requirements have helped mitigate renewables curtailment in China. However, they have also increased operational costs for renewable energy projects, and many project owners have reported low utilization rates of their storage systems.
Since introduced in 2022, policy mandates requiring solar and wind energy projects to include energy storage systems have been crucial in the acceleration of storage deployment in China.

interesting, i suspect when they run into the same problem we did (prices going negative in the middle of the day) it’ll be back again but without gov mandate required

They avoided the problem years ago. That’s why they don’t need the law anymore.
They need to lower the price of batteries again. So that is what China is doing again.
You’re concerned about a problem that has already been solved. Just not every government had a plan or asked China how China already solved it.

With batteries. That they installed. Required by law.
How did you miss the entire point?
