On 9 September 2020, over 200 participants attended an EASE webinar presenting the European Parliament’s ITRE Committee Own-Initiative Report on energy storage. The webinar gave valuable insights into the work behind the report from the perspective of the Members of the European Parliament who led the drafting of the report: Claudia Gamon (rapporteur), Maria Spyraki (shadow-rapporteur), Ville Niinistö (shadow-rapporteur), and Niels Fuglsang (shadow-rapporteur). This was complemented by the European Commission, which presented its vision and policies for energy storage.

Open Letter on the Revision of the TEN-E Regulation
Following on from the European Commission’s proposed revision of the TEN-E Regulation in the latter half of 2020, EASE put forward a set of recommendations aiming at improving the legislative framework, better support renewable-based solutions, and contribute to the decarbonisation of the energy system.
The TEN-E Regulation should be significantly revised to better address the challenges and seize the opportunities in light of the European Union’s decarbonisation strategy. Flexibility solutions, and in particular energy storage, can play a key role: the regulation should recognise it and properly favour their uptakes.

EASE has submitted a technical contribution to the European Chemicals Agency’s Public Consultation on the Annex XV Restriction Report for PFAS. In January 2023, a group of EU member states collectively submitted a proposal for restrictions to the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) concerning per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS).
EASE has prepared a reply to the European Commission's Public Consultation on the EU Climate Targets for 2040 that aims to gather inputs on the EU’s intermediary climate targets for 2040 by 24 June 2023. The Call for Evidence Feedback will inform a detailed impact assessment in view of drafting a law proposal.
EASE has prepared a position paper on the proposal of the Energy Market Design revision, by outlining the key position of EASE on how to enhance the proposal and make non-fossil flexibility a central component of the new decarbonised energy system. On March 14, 2023, the European Commission released a proposed reform of the Electricity Market Design, which has the potential to significantly impact the energy storage sector.
EASE and LCP-Delta are pleased to announce the publication of the seventh edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES). The Market Monitor is based on the most extensive database of European energy storage projects. The database of over 2,600 projects includes detailed data on current installations by customer segment (residential, C&I and front-of-meter) across 24 European countries, future projects and forecasts to 2030.
