EMMES 2.0 - June 2018
EASE and Delta-ee are pleased to announce the publication of the second edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES).
EMMES 2.0 shows that:
The electrical energy storage capacity annually installed grew by 49% between 2016 and 2017 in Europe, which is a steady growth rate since 2015. In 2018it is expected to grow at a similar rate (45%) with the level of new installations accelerating
The total installed base in Europe (excluding pumped hydro) reached 1.6 GWh at end of 2017
Germany and UK remain the most important markets for grid scale projects
Italy is emerging as a rapidly growing market for residential electrical energy storage but Germany remains a clear leader.
On 5 June 2018, EASE published a study estimating the energy storage capacity that would be needed in order for the different EU Member States to achieve its decarbonisation targets.
On 22 April 2021, over 90 participants attended the webinar on the role of energy storage in the Renovation Wave. It is a strategy that aims to increase energy efficiency in buildings through renovations and innovative solutions.
EASE welcomes the proposal for the new Batteries Regulation proposed by the European Commission on 10 December 2020. Although several criticalities are present, the new Regulation is a step forward to tackle several of the barriers that currently hinder the battery market.
The report reveals the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the energy storage market, with lockdown affecting commercial and industrial, and behind-the-meter segments, while front-of-meter projects proved more resilient. Looking ahead, 2021 looks particularly strong for the sector with new ancillary services opening across Europe and national targets further supporting regional projects.
EASE has prepared an overview of the upcoming and existing key policy and actions of Spain, the Netherlands and Germany to support the uptake of hydrogen and Power-to-Gas solutions.
