European Union plan to transition away from dependency on Russian fossil fuel imports has been released in draft form.

A leaked draft version the policy strategy designed to liberate the European Union from ties to Russian fossil fuel imports, includes no mention of energy storage.

European Union must develop coherent strategy on energy storage to achieve decarbonisation goals and end dependency on Russian fossil fuels.

Bill Gates-founded Breakthrough Energy, The European Associate for Storage of Energy (EASE), Solar Power Europe and Wind Europe have together called on the European Commission to recognise energy storage’s crucial role for the security of energy supply in Europe.

Energy storage system (ESS) provider Tesvolt says that it saw 195% year-on-year growth in orders during March, as businesses seek to reduce their dependency on fossil fuels especially in light of the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

The European Commission’s plan to lower dependency on Russian gas imports needs to focus on pairing renewable energy with energy storage.

Liam Stoker and Andy Colthorpe return for the February 2022 episode of the Solar Media Podcast.

The first pilot deployment of a large-scale electrochemical energy storage system (ESS) has been completed in the Ukraine, less than a year after system supply contracts were signed.

US equipment manufacturer and engineering solutions company Honeywell has signed a contract to supply what is thought to be the Ukraine’s first large-scale battery energy storage system.
