6 FAQs about [National regulations on new energy storage]

Is energy storage regulated?

Whilst the Department of Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (“BEIS”) and Ofgem have been supportive of energy storage and recognise the benefits and flexibility provided by the various technologies, there is no specific legislation on or regulation of storage at present.

Why are we legislating electricity storage?

Why are we legislating? Electricity storage covers a range of technologies that store low carbon energy for when it is needed, for example in batteries on the wall of your home or business, or in facilities that pump water to higher reservoirs when electricity is abundant, and let it flow back down through a turbine when it is scarce.

Should electricity storage be formalised as a subset of generation?

Formalising electricity storage as a distinct subset of generation removes current ambiguities and provides long term clarity and certainty over its treatment within the existing frameworks (e.g. planning and licensing) and possible future frameworks.

Why is electricity storage important for a net zero energy system?

2.9.9 Electricity storage is essential for a net zero energy system, it stores electricity when it is abundant for periods when it is scarce, as well as providing a range of services to help maintain the resilience and stability of the grid.

Who regulates electricity storage?

Ofgem is the relevant regulator for electricity storage, though as noted above there is no specific storage regulatory regime. Ofgem has recognised that there are regulatory changes required to enable the full commercial development of storage and it has committed to working with other stakeholders to consult on such changes.

What is electricity storage & how does it work?

This measure will facilitate the deployment of electricity storage. The Bill amends the Electricity Act 1989 to, in effect, clarify that electricity storage is a distinct subset of generation, and defines the storage as energy that was converted from electricity and is stored for the purpose of its future reconversion into electricity.
