STORAGE
Powered by SolarPower Europe
The Battery Storage Europe Platform brings together industry leaders representing the battery storage value chain to advance the business case and regulatory frameworks for battery storage across the EU. Together, we urge a tenfold increase in battery storage by 2030 to ensure Europe’s energy transition, security, and competitiveness.
"Battery storage is a critical flexibility resource for integrating renewables and will be fundamental in the energy transition for Europe. The Battery Storage Europe Platform plays a significant role in bringing together industry players to discuss regulation, market design proposals, and technical standards so that this technology can be deployed at the scale Europe requires. At EDP, we develop utility-scale, stand-alone, and paired with distributed generation projects, and we welcome the steps taken by this platform to foster the discussion around storage."
"Battery storage is no longer optional, it’s essential. The Battery Storage Europe Platform brings together key players to make this technology safer, more reliable, and bankable. At REIB, we’re proud to support this initiative by offering tailor-made insurance solutions that enable the energy transition to move faster and more securely."
"The Battery Storage Europe Platform represents a vital opportunity to help shape smarter regulation and advocate for a policy framework that truly supports investment in storage. If we are to scale at the pace the energy transition demands, platforms like this must lead the way."

Why the battery storage Europe platform?
01
Shortcut to a Flexible Energy System
Battery energy storage systems – from residential to commercial & industrial (C&I) to utility-scale – are the absolute short cut to delivering the flexible, electrified energy system that is foundational to EU energy security and competitiveness goals.
02
Protecting Against Volatile Energy Prices
Over 3 million home batteries have been connected to European grids in just three years, helping shield families and businesses from price volatility while also cutting emissions.
03
Balancing the Grid
Battery energy storage offers an affordable and practical solution to balance energy demand in a grid increasingly powered by renewables. As variable sources like solar and wind expand, so does the need for storage to support a flexible, integrated energy system.

Battery storage figures
In 2024, Europe installed 21.9 GWh of new battery storage capacity: 11th consecutive record breaking year of annual additions
Annual growth slows down in 2024 to 15%: inflection point toward next strong growth phase, led by grid-scale deployment
Total installed capacity to reach 400 GWh by 2029: more than six-fold expansion, but true potential lies at 600 GWh
