Abstract generation in progress

Geopolitical conflicts are ongoing, Qatar’s LNG production capacity was hit, and energy prices have skyrocketed. Yesterday, ICE UK natural gas futures rose 121.5% versus the 2026 low point, while TTF Dutch natural gas futures rose 120.8%. With geopolitical disruptions, attention to energy security has surged; as a distributed core carrier, energy storage’s strategic position has become prominent.

Global demand is accelerating its release. Since March, the UK has been speeding up the rollout of residential energy storage subsidy policies, and Indonesia has been advancing the deployment of 100GW/320GWh solar-plus-storage. Beyond Europe, in Southeast Asia (such as the Philippines and Vietnam) and the Middle East (such as Iraq and Syria), affected by the fighting, residential energy storage demand has clearly increased. In Q2, Asian demand is expected to exceed expectations. For countries such as India-Pakistan and Japan-Korea, which rely on natural gas imports from the Persian Gulf, combined with the peak hot season, demand is likely to be amplified.

The Energy Storage Battery ETF from E Fund (159566, Fund Link A/C: 021033/021034) focuses on core segments such as cells, energy storage systems, inverters, and liquid cooling. It represents pure energy-storage beta and is the largest energy-storage-related ETF by size across the whole market.
