Measures to limit EU exposure to fossil fuel supply chain and energy price shocks are welcome, but many questions remain, clean energy associations have said.

European Union countries have made limited progress on energy storage deployment and electricity network flexibility recommendations.

European Commission funding is supporting a project to integrate battery storage at a pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) plant in Slovakia.

The European Commission has approved a €699 million (US$760 million) state aid scheme in Spain to support the deployment of up to 3.5GW of energy storage.

The European Commission has given the go-ahead to a scheme in Czechia that will support the deployment of 1.5GWh of energy storage projects.

The European Commission is targeting 90% renewable electricity by 2040 in the EU and sees energy storage as one of several key areas of investment to get there, according to a leaked draft.

The National Energy and Climate Plans (NECPs) of European Union (EU) Member States are largely falling short in recognising the vital role of energy storage, the Energy Storage Coalition has said.

The European Commission, along with governments of Australia, the US and Canada, have backed a new initiative to promote battery storage.
