"Permitting processes are one of the major barriers to the development of renewable and storage projects in Europe, which has a knock-on effect for the PPA market". Read the full interview with Annie Scanlan, Policy and Impact Director at RE-Source Platform for more insights on PPAs and their potential. https://lnkd.in/eAhpuTJ5

New to #energystorage? ➡ Here is an explainer by Financial Times on #batterystorage. https://lnkd.in/gXqvihec "Batteries are part of the arsenal of clean energy technologies that will enable a net zero emissions future."

❗ The Electricity Market Design creates an obligation for Member States to estimate their needs for flexibility for a period of 5 to 10 years. A similar assessment will also be performed at EU-level. This will enable governments to be able to decide how much to invest and where. ➡ To make sure that those assessment are reflecting system needs, and guiding investments in the most effective resource allocation, we need to make sure that the methodology used reflects all the services provided by energy storage at different timescales and that the voice of all stakeholders is heard. For this reason on 24 September, the Energy Storage Coalition will host an interactive discussion between the entities involved in this process, the European Commission, academics, and industry experts. We will exchange views on how this methodology could be shaped to ensure it is future-proof and supports the appropriate deployment of energy storage technologies and renewables. 👉 Join us online!

🔔 Register now for our Workshop on Methodology for Flexibility Needs Assessments, taking place on 24 September. The methodology applied to the flexibility needs assessments is essential to their success. Its design carries many challenges & opportunities: let's meet to discuss them! ➡ https://lnkd.in/ek3GWgqM #ElectricityMarketDesign #energystorage

The Energy Storage Coalition is a proud partner of Enlit Europe. Enlit Europe is a constantly growing, inclusive, end-to-end forum that addresses every aspect of the energy agenda, including #energystorage. This year the in-person event takes place on 22-24 October in Milan. See you there! ➡ https://lnkd.in/d3iNAap

Strengthening our #energygrids is crucial for a sustainable future. Here are 3️⃣ ideas on how to do so: 🔌 Invest in grid expansion and deploy cost-efficient alternatives like demand-response and energy storage. 🔌Provide clear definitions of generator network code requirements, ensuring clarity on maximum capacity during connection agreements for hybrid systems. 🔌Establish local flexibility markets and investigate ENTSO-E’s role in developing grid services products. #EnergyStorage

Beyond mitigating #climatechange, the energy transition offers new #work opportunities. 👨🏭👩🏭 In 2023, 36 million workers were employed across clean energy supply chains, and, in the European Union, #cleanenergy accounted for nearly one-third of GDP growth, the highest share of any region assessed. https://lnkd.in/eRhR8nNj #energystorage

📢 Workshop announcement 📅 24 September 2024 📌 Online According to the #ElectricityMarketDesign, by June 2025, the methodology for flexibility needs assessments has to be developed by ENTSO-E and the EU DSO and reviewed by ACER. The workshop will create the space for an interactive discussion between the entities involved in this process, the European Commission, academics, and industry experts. We will exchange views on how this methodology could be shaped to ensure it is future-proof and supports the appropriate deployment of energy storage technologies and renewables. https://lnkd.in/ek3GWgqM Open Energy Transition Breakthrough Energy WindEurope SolarPower Europe EASE - The European Association for Storage of Energy
