Observatory of energy transitions 2025 – Electricity storage: the challenges of tomorrow
This event has ended.
Against a backdrop of decarbonisation of energy use, electrification of mobility and growth in intermittent renewable energies, stationary electricity storage using batteries is becoming an essential link in Europe’s electricity system. To support this trend, De Gaulle Fleurance, in partnership with Clean Horizon, Harmony Energy France, Liedekerke (Belgium), WKB (Poland) and Shakespeare Martineau (United Kingdom), is presenting the 6e edition of its Observatory on energy transitions, focusing on electricity storage.
The latter provides a snapshot of the legal, regulatory, fiscal and operational framework for battery storage in 4 European countries. It underscores the persistent obstacles to its deployment as well as the tangible opportunities for investment and acceleration. This edition brings together cross-disciplinary expertise – legal and technicals- to identify realistic and shared perspectives on the development needs of European markets.
To this end, De Gaulle Fleurance will hold an online event with an international panel of experts. The main conclusions of the Observatory will be presented at the meeting :
