“Multiple use of storages and other flexibility technologies lowers costs of energy transition”
German Energy Agency
Using power storages and other technologies to relieve the electricity grid can significantly lower the cost of the energy transition and avoid grid expansion, writes German Energy Agency (dena) in a new study. “We need a bridge between the market and the power grid. A big, new playing field for innovative products can develop this way,” said dena head Andreas Kuhlmann in a press release. The study examines how the use of flexibility technologies such as storages, load management or power-to-heat could be optimised by applying them to multiple purposes.
