60-minute session
Long-duration energy storage has an important role to play in the decarbonisation of the energy sector, especially if we wish to reach the Green Deal and RePowerEU goals.
This is all possible because LDES could enable cost-effective, deep decarbonisation of electric power systems while ensuring high system reliability. Especially as the rising share of renewables in the power mix brings with it new challenges, not least of these are the structural strains on existing power-generation, transmission, and distribution infrastructure.
You are invited to join this free-to-attend broadcast, hosted by Smart Energy International in collaboration with The European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE), which will see experts address:
- Economic and operational benefits of LDES
- Technologies such as pumped hydro, redox flow batteries, metal-air batteries and mechanical storage technologies with a special focus on thermal energy storage.
- Issues that LDES can help solve, such as potential imbalances in supply and demand or changes in transmission flow patterns
Moderator: Patrick Clerens, Secretary General, EASE
Speakers to be confirmed.
