We have gathered some key highlights from the event:
- Energy storage technologies are leading the way as we shift to a greener and more reliable energy system. They act as the vital bridge between energy generation and consumption, enabling a seamless and sustainable energy transition. By efficiently storing excess energy when it's abundantly available and releasing it when demand peaks, these technologies play a pivotal role in ensuring a reliable energy supply. This not only enhances grid stability but also promotes the integration of renewable energy sources, charging the way for a cleaner and more dependable energy future for all of us.
- Stationary energy storage is the next major cutting-edge technology, set to grow much like the expansion we have experienced in Electric Vehicles (EV’s). Europe is making significant developments in this direction and there is a variety of opportunities for new startups to thrive.
Thank you to all the speakers and participants who joined us on Wednesday afternoon!
