EU battery storage is ready for its moment in the sun Coupling renewables and clean flexibility growth, the EU can benefit from abundant home-grown wind and solar, reduce dependence on imported fossil energy, and
Walburga Hemetsberger, CEO of SolarPower Europe (she/her), said: “If Europe has already entered the solar age, the battery storage age is just beginning. With solar energy mainstreaming across the continent, now is the time for European decisionmakers to put batteries at the centre of a flexible, electrified, energy system.
Pumped hydro is the most widely used technology for energy storage in Europe and worldwide, but batteries and hydrogen have come into the spotlight over the last decade as a recent trend in the energy storage market.
"Battery storage is a critical flexibility resource for integrating renewables and will be fundamental in the energy transition for Europe.
The European energy landscape is undergoing a profound change: the driver of this development is the ever-faster integration of renewable energy sources in order to reduce carbon emissions and achieve climate targets. Electricity storage systems play a central role in this process.
It addresses the most important issues contributing to the broader deployment of energy storage. EU countries should consider the double 'consumer-producer' role of storage by applying the EU electricity regulatory framework and by removing barriers, including avoiding double taxation and facilitating smooth permitting procedures.
