Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/rdn2gs/gridscale_energy) has announced the addition of the "Grid-scale Energy Storage in Europe - Lessons from Global Pilot Projects" report to their offering.

Renewable energy sources are environmentally friendly and globally promoted. Due to their intermittent nature, however, renewable energy sources cannot be utilised as and when needed. Hence, an energy storage system becomes crucial to fully utilise renewable power. An energy storage facility acts as a buffer during peak demand; further, it improves grid stability through regulations and renewable integration. The long-term goal of effective, smart grid deployment is possible only through efficient utilisation of energy storage, which is analysed and explained in this deliverable.

3 Big Predictions

  • Energy storage in Europe is possible through supportive and favourable regulations, funding, and initiatives that provide clarity to participants.
  • Contribution from BESS is expected to promote grid-scale energy storage, as it is easier to implement at smaller capacities.
  • Without efficient energy storage deployment, renewable-energy integration and smart-grid implementation in Europe are impossible.

Key Topics Covered:

1. Executive Summary

2. Global Energy Storage

3. Key Lessons for Europe

4. Appendix
