Our review demonstrates that no jurisdiction currently provides a comprehensive regulatory framework for energy storage, with the majority of jurisdictions currently allowing storage to be defined as “generation” for the purposes of licensing and other regulatory requirements.
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.
Each summary covers the sector’s development and the legal and regulatory environment to consider in the deployment of energy storage projects.
As set out above, there are a wide variety of energy storage technologies and applications available. As a result there are a number of legal issues to consider, although the relative importance of such issues will be informed by the specific energy storage project design. revenue stream requirements e.g. double circuit connection.
These studies point to more than 200 GW and 600 GW of energy storage capacity by 2030 and 2050 respectively (from roughly 60 GW in 2022, mainly in the form of pumped hydro storage). The EU needs a strong, sustainable, and resilient industrial value chain for energy-storage technologies.
Electricity storage station or storage station: All the facilities connected to the Transmission System or the Electricity Distribution Network, including pumped storage stations and hybrid stations, and perform exclusively the function of storing electricity. TSO shall not own, develop, manage or operate energy storage facilities.

Energy storage regulation in Hungary | CMS Expert Guides
Despite it, the National Energy Strategy 2030 (the "Strategy") does not recommend building pumped storage power stations in Hungary. According to the Strategy energy storage may be solved more efficiently with regional cooperation (i.e. through the export/import of the excess volumes of electricity).
