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).
In this regard, greater emphasis is placed on ensuring ‘long duration’ electricity storage systems – systems that have the capacity to deliver electricity throughout at least a four-hour period – are integrated into Ireland’s electricity grid.
This reflects the findings of (Haji Bashi et al., 2022) which indicate the existence of significant policy barriers in the development of energy storage in Ireland and research which highlights gaps in public knowledge on the topic of energy storage (Zaunbrecher et al., 2016).
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.
An overview of the all-island policy landscape, and the outlook for energy storage in Ireland is provided in the following section. In 2009, the EU Renewable Energy Directive (2009/28/EC) set out targets for 20% greenhouse gas emissions reductions and 20% renewable energy by 2020.
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.
