There has been a shift in the pipeline for current and future long duration electricity storage (LDES), from over 7.2GW in December 2023 to 10.5GW in May 2024. In January, the Government published its long
The UK is a step closer to energy independence as the government launches a new scheme to help build energy storage infrastructure. This could see the first significant long duration electricity storage (LDES) facilities in nearly 4 decades, helping to create back up renewable power and bolster the UK’s energy security.
RenewableUK’s ‘EnergyPulse’ energy storage report showed that the total pipeline of battery projects has increased from 50.3GW a year ago to 84.8GW, an increase of 68.6 per cent, or 34.5GW. Operational battery storage capacity has grown to 3.5GW, while the capacity of projects under construction has reached 3.8GW.
This could see the first significant long duration electricity storage (LDES) facilities in nearly 4 decades, helping to create back up renewable power and bolster the UK’s energy security. These technologies work like giant batteries by storing renewable energy and releasing it onto the grid and into homes when needed.
Wood Mackenzie has predicted that the UK will add 25.68GWh of new grid-scale energy storage capacity during the period 2022-2031, more than twice the amount that will be added by Europe’s second fastest-growing market, Italy. More due diligence required in future
If the UK establishes a strong domestic energy storage industry, it can export storage capacity and technologies. Storage would reduce the UK’s dependence on costly, polluting and uncertain fossil fuel imports. Great Britain currently has 2.8 gigawatts (GW) of LDES across four Pumped Storage Hydro (PSH) facilities in Scotland and Wales.
The Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy has said that technologies “such as electricity storage could save up to £10 billion per year by 2050 by reducing the amount of generation and network needed to decarbonise and create 24,000 jobs”. Which are the 5 biggest UK energy storage projects?
