Unlocking New Revenue Streams for Battery Storage in Europe

With its vast renewable energy potential and increasing demands for grid stability and sustainable transportation, the country offers attractive opportunities – but also presents certain challenges.

Hydrogen technology and supply have been gaining strategic importance globally. In a context of climate change, supply chain crisis and war, the yet young technology has been put on top of the agenda of all the big economic zones. The session discusses what policy makers should do and effectively do, how industry adapts and adopts, and how this translates into industrial action.

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.

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.
