SUMMARY:Energy Storage Policy Masterclass
DESCRIPTION:Event ReportThe Energy Storage Policy Masterclass brought together leading experts in energy storage in March 2023. \nThe need for Net Zero is clear to most. The “Energy Sector” is not the only contributor to man-made greenhouse gas emissions but ultimately it is the way that we use energy that dominates these emissions. \nLow/zero carbon generation such as wind turbines\, PV panels\, nuclear power\, natural hydro and related renewable-energy generators are clearly essential to our transition to net zero emissions. This was recognised early and put incentives in place that have been hugely successful in driving down generation costs\, shortening project timescales and eliciting private investment. The UK’s CfD has been a particularly noteworthy success. \nAs the penetration of low-carbon generation rises in the electricity system\, a different challenge is revealed – how to ensure that the energy consumer receives the energy when and where it is wanted. Coal\, oil and gas gave us flexibility at very low cost and that flexibility is not easy to replace. Energy storage is one of the main solutions to the problem of reconciling supply and demand. The state of policy development around energy storage is very far behind where it should be to meet political commitments\, including UK’s net zero grid target of 2035. \nThis event\, which took place at IMECHE in London on 21st March\, set out to expose some of the main issues behind why the policies around energy storage and the other flexibility technologies are less developed than they might be. The key objective was to unearth and to share what possible directions exist and what good practice is already established that can be adopted more broadly. \nEvent Chair – Michael LiebreichMichael Liebreich is an acknowledged thought leader on clean energy\, mobility\, technology\, climate\, sustainability and finance. He is the founder and senior contributor to Bloomberg New Energy Finance\, a member of numerous industry\, governmental and multilateral advisory boards\, an angel investor\, a former member of the board of Transport for London\, and an Advisor to the UK Board of Trade. \nThis event was kindly supported by the following organisations: \nDownloadable Presentations & VideosYou can download all presentations and view video from the event below.

SUMMARY:Royal Society Large Scale Energy Storage event
DESCRIPTION:The Royal Society’s Large Scale Energy Storage event\nOn Weds 8th September\, an event was held at the Royal Society in London on the critical subject of Large Scale Energy Storage and the report on the subject that was recently published by the Royal Society. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIt commenced with an introduction by Peter Bruce\, followed by Chris Llewellyn Smith providing an overview of the findings of the report published by the Royal Society on Large Scale Electricity Storage.  \nPresentations delved into various aspects\, such as the effects of weather and climate change\, modeling with multiple storage options\, and the economics of storage\, led by Sara Walker\, Tony Roulstone\, Seamus Garvey\, and John Rhys. \nAfter a brief break\, the focus shifted to large-scale storage technologies\, including hydrogen and ammonia\, as well as non-chemical alternatives\, chaired by Sara Walker\, Mike Muskett\, and Phil Eames. \nThe event also featured a plenary discussion and Q&A session\, providing an opportunity for valuable insights from the panel of previous speakers\, led by Peter Bruce. \nFollowing a lunch break\, breakout sessions explored the implications of the report in areas like economics\, market changes\, regulator controls\, grid and system impacts\, and the future of hydrogen and ammonia technology. These sessions were guided by experts including Cameron Hepburn\, Maxine Frerk\, Nilay Shah\, and Yulong Ding. \nAfter another break\, the event reconvened with plenary feedback from the breakout sessions and discussions\, moderated by Chris Llewellyn Smith. \nCatherine Bremner addressed government policy impacts\, shedding light on the role of policy in shaping the energy storage landscape. Finally\, Peter Bruce and Chris Llewellyn Smith delivered a summary and brought the event to a close. \nThis event served as a platform for comprehensive discussions and insights into the challenges and opportunities of large-scale energy storage\, with experts and policymakers coming together to drive progress in this crucial field. \nNotes from the event\nTwo notes have been produced as a result of the event which can be downloaded below: \n\nHydrogen storage in aquifers and depleted gas fields\nTransporting Hydrogen vs. Transporting Electricity and the Relative Locations of Supply\, Storage and Demand\n\nDownload the event slides below\nThe slides from the event can be found by clicking on the relevant links in the programme\, or alternatively you can download the full pack of slides below: \n\nRoyal Society Energy Storage Launch Presentations\n\nRead the Royal Society’s report\nThe Royal Society’s report into Large Scale Energy Storage and other information about their work in this area can be found and downloaded from their webpage. \nEvent Programme\n10.30: Welcome and Introduction\, Peter Bruce \n10.40: Overview of the findings of the report – Chris Llewellyn Smith \n11.10: Presentations on: \n\nThe effects of weather on climate change – Tony Roulstone\nModelling including multiple stores – Seamus Garvey\nEconomic implications and questions – John Rhys\n\nChaired by Sara Walker \n12.00: Presentations on large scale storage technologies \n\nHydrogen and ammonia – technical assumptions – Mike Muskett\nNon-chemical storage technologies – Phil Eames\n\nChaired by Sara Walker \n12.25: Q&A session with previous speakers\, Chaired by Peter Bruce \n14.00: Breakout sessions looking at the implications of the large scale energy report \n\nEconomics of Storage\, Market Changes and Regulatory Controls\, Chair – Cameron Hepburn\nGrid and system impacts\, Chair – Maxine Frerk\nLikely developments in hydrogen and ammonia technology\, Chair – Nilay Shah\nLikely developments in medium duration storage\, Chair\, Yulong Ding\n\n15.00: Plenary feedback from the breakout sessions and discussion.
