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.
EASE published its 2020 Activity Report. We worked hard to drive forward the EU policy agenda to support energy storage deployment and were happy to see that, despite the challenges posed by the pandemic, EU policymakers stayed true to their climate ambitions and made 2020 a significant year for EASE and energy storage.
On 9 February 2021, EASE and Batteries Europe welcomed more than 200 participants to discuss the future of batteries, the challenges currently faced by battery manufacturers, and possible solutions to foster the EU leadership in the battery storage field.
EASE prepared a reply to the European Commission proposal to revise the EU rules on the Trans-European Networks for Energy (TEN-E) Regulation. We welcome this proposal: it is a step forward, a piece of legislation more in line with the European Union’s climate objectives, although criticalities are still present.
EASE has provided its reply to the European Commission’s public consultation on the revision of the Renewable Energy Directive. The revision of the recast Renewable Energy Directive is essential in order to achieve the target of at least 55% greenhouse gas emissions reduction compared to 1990 levels.
