This Best Practice Guide covers eight key aspect areas of an energy storage project proposal. This Guide documents the industry expertise of leading firms, covering the different project components to help reduce the internal cost of project development and financing for both project developers and investors.
The Commission also encourages further exploiting the potential of energy storage in the design and operation of the networks. Some recommendations also address challenges related to a need for long-term visibility and predictability of revenues to facilitate access to finance (for example monetising services provided).
In concrete terms, the Commission is recommending EU countries to consider the specific characteristics of energy storage when designing network charges and tariff schemes and to facilitate permit granting. The Commission also encourages further exploiting the potential of energy storage in the design and operation of the networks.
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.
2. Calls on the Commission to develop a comprehensive strategy on energy storage to enable the transformation to a highly energy-efficient and renewables-based economy taking into account all available technologies as well as close-to-market technologies and keeping a technology-neutral approach to ensure a level playing field;
Finally, energy storage technologies facilitate the electrification of different economic sectors, notably buildings and transport. For example, beyond the electricity system, thermal storage can contribute to the decarbonisation of the heating and cooling sectors.
