Reversing the slow climb of energy costs, starts with gaining greater awareness of how your building uses energy. In this article, we will discuss the average commercial building energy consumption per square foot, and help you
Price monitoring will be intensified, and the CREG will expand its analysis of energy prices in export markets to ensure competitiveness. The government also announced continued efforts to make energy invoices more transparent. Hydrogen: Belgium aims to position itself as a hub for hydrogen and its derivatives.
We expect to see battery storage prices continue to decline in 2025, even as raw material prices rise, due to the oversupply of battery production. The rapid growth of battery manufacturing, particularly in China and Europe, has outpaced demand, which is exerting downward pressure on pricing.
Belgium: Energy Transition Fund. Support for R&I projects for energy. In this context, several publicly funded R&I projects which also include storage, are being performed by Belgian research centres. The funding for energy related R&I projects in 2022 amounts to 25 million €.
The IEA emphasises the need for scalable energy storage solutions to enhance grid reliability and support the integration of variable renewable energy sources.
