European policy makers need to strengthen the role of flexibility technologies, write Fluence’s Julian Jansen and Lars Stephan.

EU reforms of electricity market should recognise value of flexibility options like energy storage, according to representatives of Fluence.

A cap and floor regime would be the most beneficial solution for supporting long-duration energy storage in the UK, a report from KPMG has found.

The UK will exempt clean energy technologies from business rate rises while tenders for large-scale renewables will allow bids to include generation projects colocated with energy storage. 

Energy storage is a key enabler of net zero emissions in the UK, but some unresolved challenges still make it a complex sector to navigate, as Antonia Silvestri and Gary Roscoe, partners at law firm TLT, explain.

A 10.5GW solar-plus-wind project is under development in Morocco’s Guelmim Oued Noun region, with 3.6GW of this to be exported to Great Britain.

In this month’s episode of the Solar Media Podcast, Liam Stoker and Andy Colthorpe discuss how the clean energy economy is responding to the coronavirus, Andy reports back from PV Expo in Tokyo and Liam explores what the return of solar and other established renewables to the UK’s Contracts for Difference process means.
