Long-duration energy storage technologies store excess power for long periods to even out the supply. In March 2024, the House of Lords Science and Technology Committee said increasing the UK’s long-duration energy storage capacity would support the UK’s net zero plans and energy security.
Stephen Crosher, Chief Executive of RheEnergise Ltd said: Over the next decade, Long Duration Energy Storage can make an important contribution to the UK energy market, and indeed globally. Long Duration Energy Storage is a key to delivering the energy transition and will help strengthen the resilience and security of the UK’s energy system.
Long Duration Electricity Storage (LDES) technologies contribute to decarbonising and making our energy system more resilient by storing electricity and releasing it when needed. LDES can also help reduce costs for consumers through reducing their bills and by avoiding the need for expensive electricity grid upgrades.
Ministers confirmed that the system of energy storage is being reviewed with the National Energy System Operator (NESO) to help make it fit for the future.
However, new energy storage technologies can store excess energy to be used at a later point, so the energy can be used rather than wasted – meaning we can rely even more on renewable generation rather than fossil fuels, helping boost the UK’s long-term energy resilience.
Accelerating renewables is key to boosting our energy resilience. Energy storage helps us get the full benefit of these renewables, improving efficiency and helping drive down costs in the long term.
