Do European and UK regulators support battery energy storage systems?
The success in recent capacity market auctions in Italy and the UK, as well as other European countries that are building large-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) projects, signals that the European and UK regulatory environment is providing a degree of limited support to the technology.
What are the key challenges facing battery storage?
It also outlines the key challenges facing the sector, including underdeveloped frameworks and barriers to investment. The study concludes with five policy recommendations designed to accelerate battery storage deployment and ensure energy systems are prepared to integrate high levels of renewable energy.
Is battery storage a key development in the UK?
Since , the key development in the UK and broader European battery storage sector has been the introduction of battery storage into capacity market auctions. The UK’s T-4 Capacity Market auction awarded 1,093MW of battery storage contracts in February.
Are battery storage projects funded on a stand-alone basis?
KBRA has observed an important distinction in the funding tools for battery storage depending on whether batteries are being funded on a stand-alone basis or as part of a portfolio, versus those that are part of hybrid projects (utility-scale solar or wind combined with battery storage).
Is battery storage a risky investment?
Firstly, the nascent nature of energy storage technology means that fixed income lenders and senior debt providers are naturally risk averse. Battery storage has less of a track record than other renewable energy assets such as solar and wind power.
How are battery storage transactions funded?
Funding techniques vary, but most battery storage transactions are funded on a short-term basis, taking into account corporate risk rather than on a pure stand-alone, nonrecourse basis. Regulation has a role in bridging the gap between inherent merchant exposure and long-term lenders’ needs for predictable cash flows.
