6 FAQs about [European home energy storage system design]

What does the European Commission say about energy storage?

The Commission adopted in March 2023 a list of recommendations to ensure greater deployment of energy storage, accompanied by a staff working document, providing an outlook of the EU’s current regulatory, market, and financing framework for storage and identifies barriers, opportunities and best practices for its development and deployment.

Why is energy storage important in Europe?

In Europe, there is a growing consensus amongst policymakers that energy storage is crucial to securing affordable and low carbon energy. In May 2022, European Union launched their REPowerEU plan, a part of the European Green Deal, which mandates that 45% of Europe’s energy generation needs to come from renewable sources by 2030.

What is the energy storage database?

The database includes three different approaches: Energy storage technologies: All existing energy storage technologies with their characteristics. Front of the meter facilities: List of all energy storage facilities in the EU-28, operational or in project, that are connected to the generation and the transmission grid with their characteristics.

Why should EU countries consider the 'consumer-producer' role of energy storage?

It addresses the most important issues contributing to the broader deployment of energy storage. EU countries should consider the double 'consumer-producer' role of storage by applying the EU electricity regulatory framework and by removing barriers, including avoiding double taxation and facilitating smooth permitting procedures.

Is the home storage market growing in Europe?

The market for home storage is growing at a record pace across Europe. For example, in its latest market study for residential energy storage, SolarPower Europe calculates an increase in storage capacity of 71% (3.9 GWh) in the most likely scenario for the past year.

Why is energy storage a problem in Europe?

The fact that it happens in many European countries is a result of energy storage being seen not only as a stand-alone entity but also as a hybrid between a load and a generator. This is problematic because it makes energy storage less competitive to generating units and consumers, who pay the network charges only once.
