Denmark's energy grid, which has been a frontrunner in incorporating wind power, remains exposed to periods of imbalance and price fluctuation, and BESS installations will offer useful management and optimization. The Everspring portfolio, financed by Ringkjøbing Landbobank, is intended to provide flexible capacity to the Danish grid.
The project, worth approximately 3 billion hryvnias (around €67 million), aims to create one of the largest energy storage systems in Eastern Europe. The consortium includes Oschadbank, PUMB, and Ukrgasbank.

The European Commission said it will launch a European Grid Package in the fourth quarter of 2025 to expand energy storage capacity and attract clean energy investment.
1. The European Commission must adopt an Energy Storage Action Plan within a broader Flexibility Package, to harmonise markets, remove regulatory barriers, and ensure storage is integral to national energy strategies. 2.
21.9 GWh of battery energy storage systems (BESS) was installed in Europe in 2024, marking the eleventh consecutive year of record breaking-installations, and bringing Europe's total battery fleet to 61.1 GWh. However, the annual growth rate slowed down to 15% in 2024, after three consecutive years of doubling newly added capacity.
The EU is advancing several key projects and initiatives in the energy storage field to boost renewable energy integration, stabilize the grid, and support clean energy goals. These initiatives and projects highlight the EU's commitment to advancing energy storage technologies and integrating renewables into the energy grid.

The project, which represents 50% of all Dutch energy storage capacity, provides frequency regulation by using power stored in its batteries to respond to grid imbalances.
The Netherlands Advancion Energy Storage Array was commissioned in late 2015 and provides 10 MWh of storage to Dutch transmission system operator TenneT. The project, which represents 50% of all Dutch energy storage capacity, provides frequency regulation by using power stored in its batteries to respond to grid imbalances.
The vast majority of the 20 MW of installed energy storage capacity in the Netherlands is spread over just three facilities: the Netherlands Advancion Energy Storage Array (10 MW Li-ion), the Amsterdam ArenA (4 MW Li-ion), and the Bonaire Wind-Diesel Hybrid project (3 MW Ni-Cad battery).
Although renewable energy projects in general are possible under current legislation, the Netherlands has no specific legislation for energy storage. The legislator has drafted a bill combining and improving the current Electricity and Gas Act also known as “STROOM”.
In the end, a control framework for large-scale battery energy storage systems jointly with thermal power units to participate in system frequency regulation is constructed, and the proposed frequency regulation strategy is studied and analyzed in the EPRI-36 node model.
Since the battery energy storage does not participate in the system frequency regulation directly, the task of frequency regulation of conventional thermal power units is aggravated, which weakens the ability of system frequency regulation.
Renewables represent less than 10% of electricity generated. By 2020, renewable energy is to represent 14% of the entire Dutch energy supply, as mandated by the EU in the Renewable Energy Directive (2009/28/EC). This corresponds to an electricity sector with over 30% renewable energy generation.
The Greek Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure has increased its target for a merchant standalone battery energy storage system (BESS) rollout to 3. 55 GW against the background of rising demand for flexible power and strong investment interest in the market.
[PDF Version]Home » News » Renewables » Greece awards 188.9 MW for subsidized battery storage in final auction Greece's third energy storage auction has been completed, with nine projects selected and a capacity of 188.9 MW.
Greece's third energy storage auction has been completed with nine projects selected. It was the final auction where the state provides subsidies to build battery energy storage systems (BESS). A total of almost 800 MW in capability has been awarded through all three storage auctions.
Currently there is a growing interest for investments in storage facilities in Greece. Licensed projects mostly consist of Li-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS), either stand-alone or integrated in PVs, as well as PHS facilities .
The much-awaited ministerial decree for zero-subsidy standalone battery systems has been published in Greece. So far, Greece has provided support to 900 MW of standalone storage projects under three previous auctions.
It was the final auction where the state provides subsidies to build battery energy storage systems (BESS). A total of almost 800 MW in capability has been awarded through all three storage auctions. In the latest bidding, nine projects with a four-hour storage duration have been selected for a total capacity of 188.9 MW.
Considering the energy arbitrage and flexibility needs of the Greek power system, a mix of short (~2 MWh/MW) and longer (>6 MWh/MW) duration storages has been identified as optimal. In the short run, storage is primarily needed for balancing services and to a smaller degree for limited energy arbitrage.
This study proposes a gravity energy storage system and its capacity configuration scheme, which utilizes idle steel blocks from industry overcapacity as the energy storage medium to enhance renewable energy integration and lower corporate electricity costs.
