The UK government has launched a new grant funding programme for energy storage technologies that can provide inter-day and seasonal energy shifting applications.
“Short duration flexibility has a massive role to play in reducing the costs of the Great British energy system, saving £10 billion a year by 2050,” Duncan Stone said this morning at the Energy Storage Summit 2025 in the UK.
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.
