This approach supports a wide range of storage technologies and highlights the EU’s commitment to fostering a balanced and adaptable energy ecosystem.
EU energy storage initiatives are a key part of advancing energy security and the transition toward a carbon-neutral economy, improving energy efficiency, and integrating renewable energy sources into electricity systems, and can play an integral role in balancing power grids and saving surplus energy.
Total energy subsidies in the EU jumped from €213 billion in 2021 to €397 billion in 2022 and decreased by 10% to €354 billion in 2023 – equivalent to 2.10% of GDP, down from 2.37% in 2022.
The key regulations relevant for energy storage in the EU include the following: Focus of EU Regulation The EU regulation of energy storage is generally spread across a number of regulatory acts, many of which require implementation at the level of the EU member states.
The European Commission in 2020 published a study on energy storage, which summarized some previous studies and reports, explored current and potential energy storage markets in Europe, and set out policy and regulatory recommendations for energy storage.
