European Energy Storage Power Supply Procurement Latest

Europe has seen its first year when energy storage deployments by power capacity exceeded 10GW in 2023. The eighth annual edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES) was published last week by consultancy LCP Delta and the European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE). EU gas and electricity markets in the third quarter of 2024 proved robust in ensuring security of supply, benefitting from some of the measures taken in recent years in terms of resilience, improved integration among EU countries and the roll-out of renewables, according to the new quarterly reports for both markets published today.

What is the European energy storage inventory?

In March 2025, the Commission launched the European Energy Storage Inventory, a real-time dashboard that displays energy storage levels across different European countries. It is the first European-level tool of its kind and offers energy storage data across a full range of technologies.

What are EU energy storage initiatives?

EU energy storage initiatives are a key part of advancing energy security and the transition toward a carbon-neutral economy, improving energy efficiency, and integrating renewable energy sources into electricity systems, and can play an integral role in balancing power grids and saving surplus energy.

How much energy storage will Europe have in 2023?

Europe has seen its first year when energy storage deployments by power capacity exceeded 10GW in 2023. The eighth annual edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES) was published last week by consultancy LCP Delta and the European Association for Storage of Energy (EASE).

What is the European commission'recommendation on energy storage'?

It contains concrete recommendations to help facilitate the fast and broad deployment of energy storage. In its latest effort to support the deployment of energy storage in Europe, the European Commission adopted its “Recommendation on Energy Storage – Underpinning a decarbonised and secure EU energy system,” on March 14, 2023.

How will the European Commission support large-scale energy storage in Spain?

The European Commission on Monday approved a new aid scheme for the deployment of large-scale electricity storage in Spain.
