Batteries, bills and backlogs

In this week's episode, we delve into the fast-evolving landscape of battery energy storage systems (BESS) ahead of inspiratia’s Energy Storage Summit on 27 March in London, from Italy’s long-delayed but now-confirmed MACSE Auctions to the latest UK capacity market results.

We also bring you an update on the UK's Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) cap-and-floor scheme details released by Ofgem and DESNZ, and dive into the UK’s Planning and Infrastructure Bill, asking what it means for unlocking grid connections and streamlining major project approvals.
