Britain’s lack of storage meant 1.35TWh of wind energy between October 2022 and January this year was lost

The lack of long-duration energy storage capacity could undermine the UK’s efforts to cut reliance on gas, according to a new report

Business leaders met with the Energy Minister to discuss further support towards long-duration energy storage technologies

The 250MWh project is considered to be one of Europe’s largest energy storage systems

The new funding will accelerate Highview Power’s cryogenic energy storage expansion globally

The facility, which will have a capacity of at least 50MW, is to be located in northern Vermont

The 50MW long-duration energy storage solution will be located at a decommissioned thermal power station in North of England

The firm says its modular CRYOBattery technology is highly scalable, cost-effective and can be located anywhere

Energy storage firm Highview Power has joined forces with engineering and construction firm TSK to form the new business

It says it will power around 5,000 homes for up to three hours while producing no emissions
