However, energy storage projects in France face several legal and commercial challenges. In particular, the current regulatory framework allows for energy storage, but there is no legal framework designed for its development.
Finally, in 2018, the French Government launched a "hydrogen plan" committing €100 million per year for five years, aimed at developing this technology and in particular its energy storage potential, in order to unlock longer-term storage opportunities.
Context of hydraulic storage problems Two important developments in the energy sector should be considered in the interest of hydraulic storage: on the one hand, the regulatory context and, on the other hand, the context of energy decarbonisation. 1.1. The regulatory context The regulatory context is crucial to understanding the value of storage.
(adapted from Ref. ). Based on gravity-energy storage, CAES, or a combination of both technologies, David et al. classified such systems into energy storage systems such as the gravity hydro-power tower, compressed air hydro-power tower, and GCAHPTS, as shown in Fig. 27 (a), (b), and (c), respectively.
Hence, hydraulic compressed air energy storage technology has been proposed, which combines the advantages of pumped storage and compressed air energy storage technologies. This technology offers promising applications and thus has garnered considerable attention in the energy storage field.
Energy storage equipment are promising in the context of the green transformation of energy structures. They can be used to consume renewable energy on the power side, balance load and power generation on the grid side, and form a microgrid simultaneously with other energy sources.
