Hybridisation of Solar PV with BESS in Europe – the Best Alternative to Stand-Alone?

free account

Recording from Wednesday, April 1, 2026 | Battery Business & Development Forum | Language: English | Duration: 81:38 .

As grid access tightens and price volatility quickly grows across Europe, co-locating batteries with PV is emerging as a smart way to go. By sharing grid connections, boosting revenues through energy shifting and ancillary services, and reducing curtailment, co-location enhances both profitability and flexibility. This session explores the regulatory, technical, and commercial advantages of hybrid renewable assets across Europe. Experts will discuss where co-location is already viable leading markets, and key regulatory hurdles in permitting and grid connection. We will explore system value, comparing hybrid PPAs and emerging business models to market-optimized stand-alone batteries.
