Though there are a number of regulatory and market barriers preventing the increased deployment of energy storage technologies, the primary barrier to deployment is high capital costs.
Meanwhile, others, like the UK, have focused on integrating energy storage into existing policy frameworks, such as the Capacity Market and Contracts for Difference schemes. The large-scale deployment of energy storage systems poses significant technical and operational challenges for grid operators.
The term barrier, as used in this report, is broadly defined as an issue that hinders deployment of energy storage technologies. In some instances, a barrier may prevent deployment; and in others, it may limit deployment, limit revenue or limit consideration for deployment.
Initiatives addressing regulatory barriers: those identifying the need for an appropriate functional classification mechanism of energy storage to ensure that the classification allows resources to provide multiple benefits to the system.
Utility and developer risk and uncertainty is a barrier that follows from the others. The multitude of barriers to the deployment of storage resources creates significant issues of uncertainty and therefore, risk, to potential owners of energy storage systems.
The government, in its response, states that it has set out steps to remove these market barriers “so as to support the rollout of energy storage projects at scale, in order to keep the lights on when renewable energy generation is low”.
