ERP Workshop: Barriers to System-Wide Energy Storage
Date: Thursday 14 April 2016
On 14 April 2016, ERP organised and facilitated a workshop to discuss Barriers to System-Wide Energy Storage. The workshop is part of a wider ongoing project which will result in a publication in October 2016 (objectives below).
A broad range of workshop attendees from across the energy system – from the electricity, gas, heat, hydrogen and transport sectors – specifically with knowledge relating to the financial, legal, political, commercial and regulatory challenges for energy storage – were invited to help ERP uncover the barriers and in turn, inform our project work.
Documents provided in support of this workshop include:
- Key Insights from the day
- Results from an interactive voting session that workshop attendees took part in on the day;
- A full detailed summary of workshop paper with notes of per table discussions, a panel session & debate, and presentation from DECC regarding its recent ‘Towards a Smart Energy System’ publication and upcoming Call for Evidence on Smart Energy.
Additionally, presentations from the workshop are provided below:
- Panel Session Debate – Gas Storage (panel session 1): Future role, barriers & solutions (David Dorsett, Uniper)
- DECC presentation: Regulatory Considerations for Storage ahead of DECC’s Call for Evidence (Danae Marshall, Smart Energy Team at DECC)
