A strategic reserve of electricity storage is a critical investment to secure the UK’s energy supply against future shocks, but the Government is still equivocating over whether it is necessary to invest in one. Since 2023, the Government has had a Department for Energy Security and Net Zero.
Shaniyaa looks into the buildout of battery energy storage in Q1 2024. 184 MW of new capacity becoming operational in Q1 2024, the lowest since Q3 2022. The new capacity came from six new battery energy storage units. These range from 19 MW to 50 MW in rated power and one to two hours in duration.
This limits their operational visibility. Overall, this means that total battery energy storage capacity in Great Britain stood at 3.7 GW at the end of 2023. The 184 MW of new capacity in Q1 2024 means that the total capacity at the end of the quarter was 3.9 GW.
The 184 MW of new capacity in Q1 2024 means that the total capacity at the end of the quarter was 3.9 GW. Six units ranging from 19 MW to 50 MW in size began operation between January and March 2024. This includes the second unit from TagEnergy/Harmony Energy’s Jamesfield site. The first unit began commercial operations in Q4 2023.
The Committee’s report on long-duration energy storage concludes that the Government must act fast to ensure that energy storage technologies can scale up in time to play a vital role in decarbonising the electricity system and ensuring energy security by 2035. Long-duration energy storage can reduce curtailment of renewables and grid congestion.
Long duration storage that can store energy for days, weeks and even years will be key, and offers the prospect of the UK being able to build an energy storage industry.
Therefore, the government has said a decarbonised power system will need to be supported by technologies that can respond to fluctuations in supply and demand, including …
