Europe''s energy storage sector delivered around 600MWh of installed capacity in 2017, a rise of 49% on the previous year. Another big push is expected in 2018, as reported by Energy-Storage.news from EMMES 2.0 –
Energy storage will be crucial to provide resilience and reliability as renewable penetration increases. With more than half of the states in the United States adopting renewable energy goals, and states such as California targeting 100% clean energy by 2045, the need for storage and especially long-duration bulk storage is becoming more pressing.
Energy storage can be sited at three different levels: behind the meter, at the distribution level, or at the transmission level. Energy storage deployed at all levels on the electricity system can add value to the grid. However, customer-sited, behind-the-meter energy storage can technically provide the largest number
