On 2 July 2025, the European Commission published guidance on renewables, grid infrastructure and network tariffs.  The communication aims to accelerate the rollout of grids, storage infrastructure and design future-proof electricity network charges. Energy storage can bring benefits that will lower system costs and consumer bills, as network charges are expected to rise across the EU.  

EASE joins over 130 private sector organisations calling on governments to anchor renewables, efficiency, storage and grids at the core of national energy plans and policies.

The European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE) is proud to launch its tenth annual Student Award recognising outstanding graduate student research in the field of energy storage!

EASE, along with other European Renewable Energy and Storage Industries, has sent a joint letter to the European Commission asking for dedicated innovation support under Horizon Europe.

The Clean Industrial Deal, released on 26 February 2025, is the European Union masterplan aimed at enhancing industrial competitiveness and promoting decarbonisation. To achieve this goal, it must fully support the scaling up of net-zero technologies, including energy storage, which is crucial for integrating renewable energy and decarbonising otherwise hard-to-abate industries.

On 26 February, the European Commission introduced two major initiatives: the Clean Industrial Deal will set the direction for faster renewable energy deployment, industrial decarbonisation, and clean technology manufacturing; the Affordable Energy Action Plan outline key measures that will shape the deployment and economic viability of energy storage in the coming years.
