Maximising Profitability By Establishing Standards & Regulation

The European Commission, in its paper regarding Energy Storage, has established the need to give more attention to the issues around energy storage with a view to addressing them more effectively in EU energy policy.

Energy storage will play a key role in enabling the EU to develop a low-carbon electricity system. Energy storage can supply more flexibility and balancing to the grid, providing a back-up to intermittent renewable energy. Locally, it can improve the management of distribution networks, reducing costs and improving efficiency. In this way, it can ease the market introduction of renewables, accelerate the decarbonisation of the electricity grid, improve the security and efficiency of electricity transmission and distribution, stabilise market prices for electricity, while also ensuring a higher security of energy supply.

Join ACI’s Energy Storage 2015 summit and engage with key actors from the industry to address its challenges and opportunities.
