Insights into the cleantech industry by Florian Mayr
As Conference Committee Chair, Apricum Head of Energy Storage Florian Mayr provides a preview of what is in store for the smarter E’s electrical energy storage (ees) Europe conference in Munich.
With all the impressive projects and gigawatt hours of energy storage being deployed in the big markets like the USA, China, and Europe, it’s easy to forget that energy storage is actually a global phenomenon.
The energy storage market is a landscape of heterogeneous “pockets of opportunities”, understanding this concept is key to success in energy storage.
Between five and more than 1,000 hours of energy discharge – that’s what the term “long-duration energy storage” encompasses in the industry today. It’s a pretty broad definition that covers a wide array of storage technologies, use cases and companies involved....
Fighting global climate change has become an undisputed imperative of our time, and renewable energy and e-mobility are key elements in this battle.
The ‘charging gap’ is widening”, Volkswagen’s head of e-mobility Thomas Ulbrich warned last week as the number of new electric vehicles (EVs) on the streets is increasingly outpacing available charging points. Based on the forecasted 2.5 to 4 million EVs and plug-in...
Germany is considered to be a “storage policy laggard” compared to markets like the UK, USA and China, with PCR appearing to be the only market scheme attractive for utility-scale storage in place.
Tesla’s plan to offer its own electricity tariffs moved forward in the UK at the end of October with the introduction of its “Tesla Energy Plan”. Participating homeowners with an installed solar system and a Powerwall storage unit are promised the lowest flat rate for...
In the final part of this article, Florian Mayr completes his review of Covid-19’s longer-term impact on the third key driver of the energy storage market. He identifies the key mindset and behavioral shifts we expect to see in a post-pandemic world, and outlines how energy storage players can best adapt and respond.
What is the actual impact of Covid-19 on the energy storage market in the longer term? In the first of this two-part article, Florian Mayr provides the bigger picture of “energy storage vs the virus” by closely examining its effects on the first two of three key market drivers
This article explores the competitiveness of energy storage and new market opportunities that are emerging via storage-plus-renewables projects by examining with some simple “reverse engineering” how recent low solar-plus-storage PPAs in the USA were achieved.
Exploring the impact of e-mobility on stationary energy storage: Part 3 focuses on second-life batteries, repurposing EV batteries for sustainable stationary storage.
