Energy storage technologies are essential for effective integration of renewable energy sources, especially for sources such as solar and wind. This is because the volume of energy generated from these sources is weather-dependent.
While the EU Commission has not yet set specific targets for energy storage assets, as part of the electricity market reform plans they announced a list of recommendations on energy storage. These recommendations offer member states guidance on how best to exploit the potential of energy storage.
Energy storage means that energy is stored when the price for energy is low (so when demand is low or supply is high). The energy stored is kept for times when the price is high (when demand is high or supply is limited).
