Energy Storage - 8: Prof. John Loughhead OBE
The trilateral energy storage workshop held on November 19, 2015, focused on international technology innovation in energy storage, highlighting various technologies and their deployment status across different countries. Key topics included pumped hydro storage, compressed air energy storage, and liquid air energy storage, among others, with examples of large-scale projects and leading developers. The workshop aimed to promote collaboration, innovation, and shared knowledge to advance energy storage solutions and make clean energy more accessible.

Editor's Notes
- #3 Cost-effective energy storage can play a key role in addressing all aspects of the energy trilemma Sustainability – Energy storage could help support higher levels of intermittent renewables & maximise output from existing renewable generation; Affordability - Cost-effective energy storage could help defer or reduce network upgrades and/or reduce use of fossil fuel peaking plant Security of Supply – Energy storage could provide network flexibility & resilience
- #4 Energy storage widely deployed across Europe. Currently, grid-connected storage deployment is dominated by pumped hydro storage – which provides more than 95% of the 145GW in Europe. Opportunity to share knowledge and develop shared supply chains as we deploy storage and develop new cost-effective storage technologies.
- #8 Scope for Collaboration: Similar innovation activity taking place in a number of countries; Scope for better collaboration on outcomes and aims of energy storage innovation – especially where publicly funded; Potential scope for joint programmes – especially as we move to larger-scale, more capital-intensive projects.
- #9 Cooperation: countries with largest clean energy RD&D budgets Transparency: gap analysis to find under-funded research areas Collaboration: countries come volunteer to collaborate on RD&D projects Finance: US call to double existing RD&D budgets + >US$1bn private sector funding
- #10 A reminder to start thinking about the final session today on ‘Next Steps’ - an open discussion on the best ways to share our energy storage knowledge and experience.
