EASE and LCP-Delta are pleased to announce the publication of the eighth edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES). The Market Monitor is an interactive database that tracks over 3,000 energy storage projects. With information on assets in over 29 countries, it is the largest and most detailed archive of European storage. The database is accompanied by a report which outlines key EU legislation, drivers and barriers for 14 core countries, future projects and forecasts to 2030.

Updated Input Data and Assumptions for the Cost-Benefit Analysis for Limited Energy Reservoirs
The update was requested by CE NRAs to consider recent developments in Frequency Containment Reserves costs and CE power system behaviour. The updated inputs will reflect the most recent frequency data, advancements in Limited Energy Reservoir (LER) technology, and changes in the CE power system. This will ensure a more accurate and up-to-date CBA, leading to a more effective Tmin LER definition that can better maintain steady-state frequency during alert states.
EASE has replied to ENTSO-E consultation on the updated input data and assumptions for the Cost-Benefit Analysis for Limited Energy Reservoirs. EASE stands behind these objectives and believes that a more accurate definition of Tmin LER is essential for the efficient, reliable, and cost-effective operation of energy storage systems.

The ninth edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES) by the European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE) and LCP Delta, is now available, highlighting Europe's rapid expansion in energy storage capacity, which reached 89 gigawatts (GW) by the end of 2024. The report also projects continued strong growth through 2030, driven by technological advancements, policy support, and other key factors.
EASE reply to ENTSO-E’s Public Consultation on the 10-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP) calls for a more balanced consideration of energy storage technologies and a clearer breakdown of the economic impacts and costs of proposed scenarios.
EASE reply to the European Commission’s Public Consultation and Call for Evidence Feedback on proposal for a Net-Zero Industry Act (NZIA) Implementing Act aiming at further specifying non-price criteria for renewable energy auctions.
In 2024, several new regulatory initiatives were introduced, marking a period of significant growth driven by key policy advancements and the collective efforts of EASE, its members, policymakers, and stakeholders.
