Leading BESS owner-operators in the UK have signalled their opposition to the government’s cap and floor support scheme for long-duration energy storage (LDES) in an open letter. We spoke to one its signatories James Basden, founder of Zenobē, about why.
The UK government has published a Technical Decision Document confirming crucial aspects of its long duration electricity storage (LDES) cap-and-floor scheme, which includes increasing the minimum duration required from six hours to eight.
The capabilities of lithium-ion battery storage in providing long-duration energy storage to global energy systems should not be overlooked, write Kotub Uddin and Sam Secher of Envision.
Ofgem, the UK’s energy market regulator, is considering raising the minimum duration of technologies eligible for a long-duration energy storage (LDES) support scheme.
Vanadium flow batteries could be a workable alternative to lithium-ion for a growing number of grid-scale energy storage use cases, say Matt Harper and Joe Worthington from Invinity Energy Systems.
We take a look at the UK government’s latest proposal for its long-duration energy storage (LDES) cap-and-floor scheme, how it’s different from the initial one, and get the views of LDES technology firm RheEnergise.
Energy storage executives from global assurance and risk management provider DNV analyse the UK government’s proposal to kickstart investment into long-duration energy storage (LDES).
