What is energy storage & how does it work?

As installations of wind turbines and solar panels increase — especially in China — energy storage is certain to grow rapidly. They are part of the arsenal of clean energy technologies that will enable a net zero emissions future. Without them, the world will never be able to move away from fossil fuels entirely. How does it work?

Who are the delegates at the energy storage Conference?

Join us in February for the networking event of the year, bringing together over 2000 delegates from across Europe’s energy storage value chain, spanning investors, developers, IPPs, banks, government and policy-makers, TSOs and DSOs, EPCs, optimisers, manufacturers, data and analytics providers, consultancies, system integrators and more.

Are batteries the future of energy storage?

Batteries offer one solution because they can quickly store and dispatch energy. As installations of wind turbines and solar panels increase — especially in China — energy storage is certain to grow rapidly. They are part of the arsenal of clean energy technologies that will enable a net zero emissions future.

What is the Energy Storage Summit?

Our Summit aims to highlight the fundamental role that energy storage will play in this journey, and will strive to recognise, explore and analyse key challenges that may present themselves on the trajectory ahead.

When is long-term energy storage important?

“This is when long - term energy storage becomes crucial.” Long duration energy storage (LDES) generally refers to any form of technology that can store energy for multiple hours, days, even weeks or months, and then provide that energy when and if needed.
