Energy storage metering in central europe

What is the European energy storage inventory?

A new interactive platform delivers real-time clean energy storage insights as Europe shifts toward sustainable energy sources. Energy storage helps to balance supply and demand. The European Energy Storage Inventory is the first of its kind at European level to show all forms of clean energy storage solutions.

What is behind the meter energy storage?

Behind the meter energy storage: Installed capacity per country of all energy storage systems in the residential, commercial and industrial infrastructures. The purpose of this database is to give a global view of all energy storage technologies. They are sorted in five categories, depending on the type of energy acting as a reservoir.

What is the EU energy technology inventory?

The inventory provides policymakers with up-to-date data to shape energy security strategies and the EU's revised Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan). The inventory also has the potential to feed into the Clean Energy Technology Observatory, ensuring that storage trends are considered in EU-wide energy technology assessments.

Which countries have the most storage facilities in Europe?

Europe’s current total operational power is around 66 GW, and planned projects mean this might double to 132 GW by 2035. According to findings from the inventory, Germany, Italy and Spain have the main relevant storage facilities among the member States.

What is the energy storage database?

The database includes three different approaches: Energy storage technologies: All existing energy storage technologies with their characteristics. Front of the meter facilities: List of all energy storage facilities in the EU-28, operational or in project, that are connected to the generation and the transmission grid with their characteristics.

Does Switzerland have a centralized data exchange platform?

Access to data remains decentralized, requiring individual agreements with each of the 170 DSOs. Switzerland’s smart meter rollout is currently at 20%, with a legal requirement for 80% coverage by 2027. Details about a centralized data exchange platform remain unclear, including whether all market participants will have access.
