European portable energy storage power supply customization

What is electrical energy storage (EES)?

Electrical Energy Storage, EES, is one of the key technologies in the areas covered by the IEC. EES techniques have shown unique capabilities in coping with some critical characteristics of electricity, for example hourly variations in demand and price.

Should battery energy storage be regulated in the EU?

The EU’s legislative and regulatory framework should guarantee a fair and technology-neutral competition between battery technologies. Several mature technologies are available today for Battery Energy Storage, but all technologies have considerable development potential.

Can battery energy storage solve Europe's energy challenges?

In order to deploy renewables and to release their potential for ensuring a stable and secure energy supply, Europe needs to work to overcome the intrinsic limits of renewables. One solution to these challenges is Battery Energy Storage.

What are the benefits of battery energy storage in Europe?

Increasing the use of renewables in the energy mix allows energy imports to be reduced, with clear benefits for Europe’s energy independence and security. The decarbonisation of the energy mix and reductions in overall CO2 emissions are other clear, positive outcomes of an increased use of Battery Energy Storage in Europe.

Are portable energy storage systems a good idea?

Now new types of portable energy storage systems are set to offset climate change, foster the development of renewable sources, work to decarbonize the economy and even deliver lower costs for businesses and households, changing lives and technology forever.

What is battery energy storage?

Battery Energy Storage can support customer loads and provide backup power throughout an entire power outage period, working as an uninterruptable power supply unit (UPS). This service is particularly useful in areas with weak, low-voltage grids.
