Storage boom in large cities: Solar storage installations in large cities
A considerable number of solar storage systems have been installed in cities with at least 100,000 inhabitants
A recent analysis of installed storage systems in German cities with at least 100,000 inhabitants shows impressive figures and illustrates the growing interest in energy storage.
In Mainz, a total of 1,148 storage systems were installed with a total net nominal output of 27,789, which corresponds to an average number of 52 storage systems per 10,000 inhabitants. Similar impressive figures can be seen in Neuss, where 1,576 storage systems with a net nominal output of 18,253 were installed, which corresponds to an average number of 102 storage systems per 10,000 inhabitants.
Other cities with significant installation of storage systems are Osnabrück with 1,173 storage facilities and a net nominal output of 14,261, Paderborn with 2,165 storage facilities and a net nominal output of 12,930, and Münster with 3,005 storage facilities and a net nominal output of 23,917.
It is striking that many cities have an impressive number of storage systems per 10,000 inhabitants, indicating a strong interest in using storage technologies for energy supply. This reflects the growing importance of decentralised energy generation options and the storage of self-generated energy.
The installation of storage systems in cities contributes to the creation of a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy infrastructure and shows the commitment of citizens and cities to a future-oriented energy supply.
These impressive figures illustrate that the installation of storage systems in cities with at least 100,000 inhabitants is an important step towards a more sustainable energy future.
Storage installations in major German cities: An overview
In German cities with more than 100,000 inhabitants, there is an increasing commitment to the installation of storage systems. These storage systems play an important role in the energy infrastructure. They support the energy supply and contribute to the stability of the grid. In this article, we take a look at the current data on the number of storage facilities, their net nominal output and their distribution per inhabitant in different cities.
Main results
- Mainz: With 1,148 storage tanks and an impressive total net nominal output of 27,789, Mainz is in a leading position. Particularly noteworthy is the high net nominal output per 10,000 inhabitants of 1,260.
- Neuss: 1,576 storage tanks are installed in Neuss. The city is characterized by a high number of storage facilities per inhabitant (102), with a total nominal capacity of 18,253.
- Paderborn: Paderborn stands out with the highest number of storage facilities per inhabitant. With 2,165 storage facilities, this corresponds to 140 storage facilities per inhabitant, although the total nominal output of 12,930 is rather medium-sized.
- Münster: Münster tops the list with the highest total number of storage facilities, with 3,005 storage facilities and a net nominal output of 23,917, the city shows a strong commitment to the energy infrastructure.
