2 European Association for Storage of Energy» About EASE The European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE) is the voice of the energy storage community, actively promoting the use of energy storage in Europe and worldwide.» EASE views and approach EASE supports all energy storage technologies and believes that storage needs to be addressed agnostically. Innovation and demonstration are required for energy storage to become a success. Consequently, the EU and Member States need to further support R,D&D of energy storage. A business case for energy storage is needed. For that reason the barriers in the existing system should be tackled. EASE is producing recommendations to enable the creation of a fair revenue stream. EASE believes the market will define the appropriate and adequate technology. Legislation should not be the one picking the winners.

8 Methodology

9 Methodology Energy storage will be required in the sustainable energy system of Europe - this is widely supported Quantitative modelling of a complete renewable European society points the same way We have aimed to point out the energy storage technologies, which we believe hold the largest potential for economic and technical development Attention to European competences in industry and research as well as knowledge and assessments of the future requirements in Europe Close collaboration between EASE and EERA JP ES Excellent input from stakeholders Source: Prof. Martin Greiner and co-workers, Aarhus University

10 Promising technologies for next decades Overall selection criteria: Present state of European competences in Industry and Research Potential for development to market-based deployment Assessment of future requirements in Europe within different segments such as generation, transmission, distribution Time horizon of years Present industrial maturity Potential market status for the technologies after appropriate development Social acceptability

11 How energy storage supports present political goals

12 How can energy storage support present political goals? By facilitating integration of renewables in the energy system Balancing Demand & Supply Managing Transmission & Distribution grids Promoting demand side management Contributing to competitive and secure electricity supply Allowing fossil-free transport

13 Conclusions from existing projections All flexibility sources will be needed: Dispatchable power plants; Demand-side response/management via a smart grid; Interconnection with adjacent markets; Energy storage.

14 Future applications & potentials in Europe

15 Services of Electrical Energy Storage Technical / Functionalities: The ability to time-shift electrical energy (both: seasonal / daily) The ability to inject energy to the electrical grid (act as a generator) The ability to extract energy from the electrical grid (act as a demand) Contribute to the overall socio-economic targets: Security of the power supply of the Electrical System Security of power quality Cost minimisation: direct & environmental costs (more energy from renewables, hence reduction of fossil-fuels)

16 Electrical Energy Storage applications

17 Where will the needs for energy storage emerge? Energy Storage can be integrated at different levels of the Electrical System: Generation level: Arbitrage, capacity firming, curtailment reduction Transmission level: frequency and voltage control, investment deferral, curtailment reduction, black starting Distribution level: voltage control, capacity support, curtailment reduction Customer level: peak shaving, time of use cost management, off-grid supply TRANSPORT Competitors: demand side adaptation, transmission, installed capacity How do we provide regulation power in the fossil-free electricity system Activation of power reserves and frequency of power system as a function of time when a large power plant is disconnected from the power system (Holttinen, VTT PUBLICATIONS 554)

18 Technologies addressed in Roadmap 1. Chemical Energy Storage 2. Electrochemical Energy Storage Batteries Electrochemical capacitors (supercapacitors) 3. Mechanical Energy Storage Compressed Air Energy Storage Flywheel energy storage Pumped Hydro Energy Storage 4. Thermal Energy Storage 5. Electrical Energy Storage Multi-Functionality Hybrid Energy Storage Systems Numbers as used in the report (Not a ranking order)

19 Multiplicity of applications imply diversity of ES technologies

20 Technologies & Competences in focus

21 e.g. Chemical energy storage What is Chemical energy storage? Short description of technologies and processes What is the maturity of the technology? E.g.: Mature/demo/pilot/R&D What are the applications? Based on pre-established applications along the electricity value chain What are the SET Plan targets for that technology towards 2030 and beyond? List of priorities analysed according to state-of-the-art, target and ultimate goal

22 e.g. Chemical energy storage What are the gaps between targets and present performance? List of gaps What are the research needs for improving the technology? E.g.: material research, demo What are the resources and infrastructure necessary? E.g. financing, public acceptance, skilled manpower

23 Market & Policy issues 2

24 Market and policy issues Energy storage has a systemic nature Aggregation of different applications for the same storage device A legal framework for energy storage at EU level must be established bearing in mind that the completion of the European single market for energy is crucial Energy storage constitutes a special and important asset of the complete energy value chain. Grid fees, taxes and similar should not be allowed to hinder or discriminate the integration of energy storage Market based storage solutions should be preferred whenever possible (grid safety, however, must always take precedence) Vattenfall 1060 MW PHS plant in Goldisthal, Germany
