This was published under the 2022 to 2024 Sunak Conservative government Over £32 million government funding has been awarded to UK projects developing cutting-edge innovative energy storage technologies that can help increase the resilience of the UK’s electricity grid while also maximising value for money.
Accelerating renewables is key to boosting our energy resilience. Energy storage helps us get the full benefit of these renewables, improving efficiency and helping drive down costs in the long term.
Long Duration Electricity Storage investment support scheme will boost investor confidence and unlock billions in funding for vital projects. The UK is a step closer to energy independence as the government launches a new scheme to help build energy storage infrastructure.
Long Duration Electricity Storage would reduce costs to consumers through lowering their energy bills, by avoided electricity grid reinforcement and avoided peak generational plant build. LCP's modelling estimates savings for the energy system (and ultimately the energy consumer) of up to £24 billion by 2050.
We take the view that an LDES scheme is primarily to support the power system and grid, rather than wider outcomes such as low-carbon heat which are best regulated separately, and therefore should not support technologies which do not meet the electricity storage definition.
