EASE submitted a response to the European Commission's public consultation on the Establishment of a Smart Readiness Indicator for Buildings. The Smart Readiness Indicator will be used to measure the capacity of buildings to use information and communication technologies and electronic systems to adapt the operation of buildings to the needs of the occupants and the grid and to improve the energy efficiency and overall performance of buildings.

EASE Annual Student Award
EASE launched in 2016 the EASE Annual Student Award, a competition aimed at recognising outstanding graduate student research in the field of energy storage.
EASE is dedicated to promoting young talents in the field and support students who are keen to contribute to the development and research of energy storage.
The competition is open to all students currently enrolled or that have completed an MSc or PhD programme at an accredited EU university. The thesis which is the basis for the application must focus on an energy storage-related topic.
The selection of the winning student will be performed by the EASE Secretariat and a selected committee of EASE members. The selection procedure is based on the abstracts provided by students in the application form. Students will be judged on the quality of the responses, the research design, and on the relevance of the research topic to the energy storage industry.
The winning student is invited to participate and presents their research during one of the events organised by EASE. This is a valuable opportunity to network with industry leaders in the energy storage sector and to learn more about energy storage technologies, business cases, and policy developments.

On 7 December 2022, over 200 participants attended webinar on electricity market design revision and joined the discussion on how it can enable energy storage for a carbon-neutral future. Representatives of EASE Policy team presented the latest EASE policy analysis paper "The Electricity Market Design Revision" and shared a list of changes identified to ensure a renewable-based and secure energy system. Speakers from Iberdrola, CellCube, Fluence and Enel X joined to discuss the topic.
EASE has finalised a paper on the upcoming electricity market design revision, highlighting how energy storage can enable a carbon-neutral future. More than ever, energy independence, security of supply, sector integration, and decarbonisation are guiding policymakers’ actions. EASE identifies a list of changes as needed to ensure a renewable-based and secure energy system.
Breakthrough Energy, EASE, SolarPower Europe and WindEurope are once again joining forces to stress the importance of energy storage for Europe to achieve energy security.
EASE has prepared a reply to the European Union Agency for the Cooperation of Energy Regulators (ACER)’s Public Consultation. The process has commenced for the current cycle of the Ten-Year Network Development Plan, the pan-European electricity infrastructure development plan, developed jointly by ENTSO-E and ENTSOG.
