6 FAQs about [Energy Storage EU Grid Connection Standards]

Why are European rules on grid connection important?

This is particularly important in view of the integration of an increasing share of sources of renewable energy in the system. European rules on grid connection also ensure a fair competition in the electricity market, and facilitate the electricity trade across the Union. Three network codes on grid connection have been developed:

What does the European Commission say about energy storage?

The Commission adopted in March 2023 a list of recommendations to ensure greater deployment of energy storage, accompanied by a staff working document, providing an outlook of the EU’s current regulatory, market, and financing framework for storage and identifies barriers, opportunities and best practices for its development and deployment.

What are the network codes on grid connection?

Three network codes on grid connection have been developed: The Network Code on requirements for grid connection of generators (RfG Regulation) establishes common standards that generators must respect to connect to the grid.

What are the rules on grid connection of generators?

The Regulation (EU) 2016/631 establishing a network code on requirement for grid connection of generators entered into force on 17 May 2016. The provisions of the regulation set out detailed rules relating to the connection of, principally, new power generating installations to national electricity networks.

How much energy storage capacity does the EU need?

These studies point to more than 200 GW and 600 GW of energy storage capacity by 2030 and 2050 respectively (from roughly 60 GW in 2022, mainly in the form of pumped hydro storage). The EU needs a strong, sustainable, and resilient industrial value chain for energy-storage technologies.

What is grid connection?

Grid connection refers to all the subjects establishing and maintaining a physical connection between the transmission and/or distribution grids and the grid users. Grid connection, or network connection, is one of the areas regulated by the specific network codes.
