Taking Energy Storage to the Next Level: Enabling Benefit Stacking Through Smarter Regulation

The EASE Secretariat was pleased to organise on 9 December 2020 a discussion on the value stacking for energy storage.

Representatives from the European Institutions and the energy storage industry discussed the challenges to the energy storage business case, with a particular focus on how to allow energy storage to live up to its full flexibility potential by providing a variety of services. The experts shared their insights and debate about the most important changes needed to overcome these barriers in the EU.

During the webinar, EASE Secretary General Mr Patrick Clerens, introduced Mr Ian Santos Fernandez, winner of the EASE fifth Student Award for his work on Legal Barriers to Electricity Storage Benefit Stacking in the European Union.

The EASE Student Award winner presented his thesis, focusing on the importance of value stacking for the business case and socio-economic value of energy storage facilities. He also presented his view on the main regulatory barriers to revenue stacking and the future outlook and recommendations.
