What does the European Commission say about energy storage?

The Commission adopted in March 2023 a list of recommendations to ensure greater deployment of energy storage, accompanied by a staff working document, providing an outlook of the EU’s current regulatory, market, and financing framework for storage and identifies barriers, opportunities and best practices for its development and deployment.

When will the government implement a long-term energy storage policy?

Deployment will also depend on ongoing developments in energy markets and a better understanding and communication of the risks. The Government will implement a policy on longer duration energy storage by 2024. Acknowledgements POSTnotes are based on literature reviews and interviews with a range of stakeholders and are externally peer reviewed.

What is electricity storage?

Electricity storage is an emerging market and we work to ensure storage developments are integrated efficiently and effectively into the existing distribution network. We expect storage projects to exponentially grow over the long term and become a key part of the UK and Ireland’s energy infrastructure.

How can the government support research and development in energy storage technologies?

To address the need for long-term research and development in energy storage technologies, collaboration between academia and industry will be necessary. The government may establish a Nodal Agency to coordinate R&D efforts in the field, and funding will be provided through this agency.

Will storage become a key part of UK and Ireland's energy infrastructure?

We expect storage projects to exponentially grow over the long term and become a key part of the UK and Ireland’s energy infrastructure. Ofgem has approved modifications removing the exclusion of storage at transmission voltages (GCode). Storage now falls under Generation within the Distribution Code (DCode).

Can longer duration storage support a future energy system?

Longer duration storage can support a future energy system with high proportions of renewable energy by providing flexible energy supply and demand, and increasing the resilience of energy networks.
