Figure 6. Battery storage capacity additions worldwide have increased disproportionately in China, the European Union, and the United States. Emerging economies remain behind in BESS
These challenges encompass financial, technical, and market barriers to the widespread adoption of BESS, issues related to grid interconnection standards and protocols, regulatory challenges
The regulatory landscape for BESS in Europe is influenced by EU directives aimed at accelerating the shift to cleaner energy sources. Notable policies include the Clean Energy
Hybrid PV power plants -which combine solar with wind and storage - are emerging as a critical solution for both existing and new projects. This session will explore the market potential,
4. Be aware that regulatory requirements may change during the project lifecycle Navigating regulatory landscapes can pose a considerable challenge for BESS projects. As BESS is a

Within European Union (EU) countries, stationary BESS must comply with the EU regulation 2023/1542, which requires evidence that minimum safety requirements have been fulfilled.
In Spain, the legislative framework governing BESS is evolving to support the growth of renewable energy sources, enhance grid stability, and meet EU decarbonization targets. This article delves into the current state of legislation surrounding BESS in Spain, highlighting key regulations, challenges, and future prospects.
The results show that nations that pioneered BESS’s application in their electricity matrices have effectively promoted storage services in deregulated markets, employing storage assets for various purposes such as peak reduction, frequency regulation, renewable energy support, and energy arbitrage applications.
By responding quickly to grid signals, the BESS can inject or absorb electricity as needed, helping to maintain grid stability and reliability. This dual participation in the energy and balancing markets allows consumers to monetise their energy storage capacity and contribute to a more efficient and resilient grid system.
