Storage and Renewables: The next frontier

A guide to co-locating energy storage with renewables

12 March 2018

Storage has been the “hot” topic in the electricity industry in recent years. There is huge potential for co-locating storage with renewables, with more than 30GW of wind and solar capacity in the UK that could benefit. However, the vast majority of storage projects that have been commissioned to date have been grid-scale standalone projects.

There are a number of issues to consider when evaluating the investment decision to co-locate and, to date, there has been a lack of clarity in respect of the specific issues faced by co-locating storage with renewables.

This guide aims to further the debate by analysing the key legal issues for co-location.
