Energy storage
In March 2025, the Commission launched the European Energy Storage Inventory, a real-time dashboard that displays energy storage levels across different European countries.
Compressed-air-energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy for later use using compressed air. At a utility scale, energy generated during periods of low demand can be released during
CAES stores excess renewable energy by compressing air into subsurface cabins and releases it during high demand via turbine expanders,
Discover the current state of energy storage companies in Europe, learn about buying and selling energy storage projects, and find financing options on PF Nexus.
The Coalition aims at accelerating the decarbonisation of the European energy system by increasing the deployment of sustainable and clean energy storage solutions to support
The Europe compressed air energy storage (CAES) market presents promising opportunities for renewable energy integration, grid stabilization, and energy storage deployment in the region.
We consider three energy storage technologies, namely battery, pumped hydro, and hydrogen storage. We find that the cost-minimal energy storage mix in a country depends
Ever wondered how Europe and America are turning thin air into a power source? Imagine storing excess wind and solar energy in what''s essentially a giant freezer – that''s the magic of air

ESS can store energy for later use, meaning that sun or wind energy can be stored until it is needed for consumption. ESS can come in a variety of forms, including (but not limited to)
Beyond batteries and pumped storage hydropower, the EU ranks second, after the U.S., in the number of companies developing novel energy storage technologies and leads in
CAES stores excess renewable energy by compressing air into subsurface cabins and releases it during high demand via turbine expanders, generating electricity back into the grid.
