Should a solar project include battery storage?

While from a solar developer’s perspective, exploring the addition of battery storage usually makes sense, some battery developers may be more focused on grid capacity than incorporating solar or other renewable energy into the project. These developers may decide not to locate their project next to a renewable energy asset.

How will UK energy storage demonstration projects help achieve net zero?

The four longer-duration energy storage demonstration projects will help to achieve the UK’s plan for net zero by balancing the intermittency of renewable energy, creating more options for sustainable, low-cost energy storage in the UK.

How will energy storage affect global electricity demand?

Global electricity demand is set to more than double by mid-century, relative to 2020 levels. With renewable sources – particularly wind and solar – expected to account for the largest share of power output in the coming decades, energy storage will play a significant role in maintaining the balance between supply and demand.

How will energy be stored?

Energy will be stored as compressed air in the underground cavities at times of surplus, and then released when required to meet system demand – in a low carbon manner and while providing other system benefits, such as grid stability and flexibility services.

Should energy storage assets be co-located?

Energy generated in periods of high production can be stored and then released during times of high demand or low generation, which alleviates intermittency risk. Storage assets can generate revenue through arbitrage during periods of lower natural generation. However, there are challenges associated with co-locating assets.

How does Hydrostor support the green economic transition?

Hydrostor supports the green economic transition, employing the people, suppliers, and technologies from the traditional energy sector to design, build, and operate emissions-free energy storage facilities.
