Storage and Renewables: the next frontier

United KingdomScotland

CMS has today published a guide to co-locating energy storage with renewables.

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 alone that could benefit.

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 analyses the key legal issues for co-location.

The guide is available here.
