Should electricity storage be regulated as electricity generation?

Alongside government, we have clarified our view that in the energy system, storage provides services equivalent to generation. Therefore, our view is that electricity storage – for licensing purposes - should be treated as electricity generation. We have previously stated that our approach to regulating storage4should be:

Which technologies should not be considered as electricity storage?

(B) Technologies that should not be considered as electricity storage • Capacitors and supercapacitors when used as circuit impedance components • Transformers • Inductors • Thermal energy storage when the stored energy is used directly as heat and not re- converted to electricity before being used

Should 'electricity storage' be included in the electricity generation licence?

To include a definition of ‘electricity storage’ and ‘electricity storage facility’ in the electricity generation licence, in order to clarify the role of electricity storage in the energy system; and

Why are we legislating electricity storage?

Why are we legislating? Electricity storage covers a range of technologies that store low carbon energy for when it is needed, for example in batteries on the wall of your home or business, or in facilities that pump water to higher reservoirs when electricity is abundant, and let it flow back down through a turbine when it is scarce.
