energy storage summit

Renewable energy and battery storage assets are best thought of as 'two business units sharing an address'.

Individual market dynamics and appetite for risk play an important role in the effectiveness of co-location as a hedge for renewable assets.

Co-located solar and battery projects are among the most cost-competitive power sources, according to speakers at the Energy Storage Summit.

Despite an awareness of the benefits that co-located storage and solar can offer, the commercial model for such sites has yet to materialise.

The economics of solar-and-storage in the UK are being proven, according to Anesco, the developer of one such project.

The rise of energy storage will enjoy a similarly meteoric trajectory to that enjoyed by solar PV deployment in the past and could reach 305GWh of installations by 2030, BNEF has predicted.

In a major energy strategy upheaval, the South Australian government is providing significant funding to support energy storage projects, starting with a 100MW grid-connected battery that will be the largest in the country.

From PV-Tech’s publisher comes The Global Energy Storage Opportunity, a special online-only supplement magazine that looks at some of the exciting recent developments in all segments from microgrids and residential to grid-scale and commercial.

Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has issued a request for selection (RfS) document for the tendering of 200MW of grid-connected solar PV to be deployed alongside utility-scale battery storage in the state of Karnataka.
