The Irish Electricity Storage Policy Framework, published after this data was collected, indicates that an immediate route to market for 500 MW of long duration energy storage is currently being developed, with further studies planned to support long duration storage from 2030 to 2040 (Government Of Ireland 2024a).
By contributing to security of supply, helping to support renewable capacity, and displacing fossil fuels in the balancing market, energy storage can deliver a net saving to end consumers in Ireland of up to €85m per year.
The Irish Government’s Climate Action Plan 2021 set out the need for an energy storage policy for Ireland to support 75% reduction in power sector CO2 emissions by 2030. There are 10 key policy actions in the framework outlining the timings and key stakeholders involved in delivering them. Key points:
The policy framework is a first of kind policy, which clarifies the key role of electricity storage in Ireland’s transition to an electricity-led system, supporting Irelands 2030 climate targets, it may be considered as a steppingstone on Ireland’s path to net zero carbon emissions.
Ireland – A Game Changer for Long Duration Energy Storage? This is the first electricity storage policy published in Ireland. The Irish Government’s Climate Action Plan 2021 set out the need for an energy storage policy for Ireland to support 75% reduction in power sector CO2 emissions by 2030.
The focus group participants noted several key second stage policy areas that required changes in order to increase the amount of energy storage development in Ireland. These included legislative changes, adjustments to the planning approval process, the development of forecasting models, grid improvements and the introduction of targets.
