The UK’s energy system relies on the storage of fossil fuels to manage variations in supply and demand over varying timescales. As these are replaced to meet the net zero emissions target, new types of low-carbon, longer duration energy storage will be needed to provide secure energy supplies.
T he National Infrastructure Commission has recommended a strategic reserve of 25 TWh of electricity storage by 2040. Since the economic incentive is to cycle storage often, there is a concern over how to ensure commercially operated storage is available when it is needed most.
A fully decarbonised electricity system will need substantial energy storage across a range of timescales due to increasing variability of supply and demand in an electrified, renewable-powered economy.
Energy storage projects that can provide additional services to the grid should be incentivised to do so by receiving additional payments above the “revenue floor” if they are eligible for the commercial long-duration energy storage cap and floor mechanism. (Paragraph 109) 41.
Long-duration energy storage developers argue that the overall value they provide to the grid in terms of electricity system services is not yet properly incentivised, meaning the revenue stack for projects does not always add up.
