Long-duration energy storage (LDES) is undoubtedly a key enabler for achieving net-zero. However, despite a wide range of technology providers claiming cost competitiveness and other advantages over lithium-ion batteries, the latter continue to dominate new deployments. So what's holding LDES back? What is needed to enable more widespread adoption? And when will the age of LDES finally arrive?

Hailed as the perfect solution for solar in the building environment for many years, only a very limited number of building integrated systems have been installed for various reasons. With the first cities, states and countries having passed laws for mandatory solar inclusion for new houses and leading global module manufacturers launching first BIPV products, it looks like the time has come for this to change.

This session explores the evolving business models behind Hybrid PV Power Plants, focusing on strategies for delivering 24/7 renewable power. We'll examine how hybrid systems—combining solar PV with energy storage, wind, and other renewables—are designed to ensure a consistent and reliable energy supply. Industry experts will discuss financial models, risk management, and the economic viability of these systems. Case studies will illustrate successful implementations, highlighting the potential of hybrid PV power plants to meet growing energy demands sustainably and cost-effectively while enabling a transition to round-the-clock renewable energy.

The continuous improvement of network development plans and flexibility strategies is crucial for addressing the challenges of grid congestion and ensuring effective capacity management. Innovative deployment strategies and business models promote the seamless integration of storage systems, which in turn enhances grid stability and optimizes energy management system costs. At the same time we look in this session at the dynamic landscape of large, grid-connected storage that requires careful consideration of integration timelines to ensure sustainable and future-proof energy utilization.
