Impact of energy storage system policy ESS policies are the reason storage technologies are developing and being utilised at a very high rate. Storage technologies are now moving in parallel with renewable energy technology in terms of development as they support each other.
These policies are mostly concentrated around battery storage system, which is considered to be the fastest growing energy storage technology due to its efficiency, flexibility and rapidly decreasing cost. ESS policies are primarily found in regions with highly developed economies, that have advanced knowledge and expertise in the sector.
Local energy means activities, initiatives or investments that are place-based responses to needs or opportunities rooted in local contexts. Variation in contexts means variation in project purposes, scopes and institutional arrangements.
We're consulting on the policy framework to enable investment in long duration electricity storage. Long duration electricity storage can provide an important contribution to decarbonising our energy system. For example, it can store renewable power and discharge it during periods of low wind.
ESS policies mostly promote energy storage by providing incentives, soft loans, targets and a level playing field. Nevertheless, a relatively small number of countries around the world have implemented the ESS policies.
In general, policies are designed to establish boundaries and provide regulatory guidelines. According to the Energy Storage Association (ESA), the policy tools fall under three categories which are value, access and competition .
