National Grid is set to accelerate the connection of up to 10GW of battery energy storage projects in England and Wales.
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.
“This is a historic moment for the UK’s energy system. We’ve not built a new Pumped Storage Hydropower (PSH) facility in nearly 50 years, but with over 10GW and 200GWh of shovel-ready projects, the Hydropower sector stands ready to deliver.
There will be a potential surge in battery energy storage system (BESS) projects receiving grid connection offers before 2030 following regulatory reforms approved by energy regulator Ofgem, according to a new study.
National Grid said this is part of a new approach which removes the need for non-essential engineering works prior to connecting storage. The freed BESS capacity adds to the 10GW of capacity unlocked for power generators with “shovel ready” projects revealed in September 2023.
This includes grid connection reform to fast-track shovel-ready clean energy projects and the creation of five major new undersea energy links, or interconnectors, to further harness the vast potential of North Sea wind to help power millions of homes.
