Large-scale thermal storage: flexibility as the new energy currency

As renewable energy deployment accelerates, energy storage is becoming increasingly critical for balancing supply and demand and strengthening the resilience of energy systems. Large-scale storage integrated with district heating and cooling offers opportunities for storage across multiple timescales, including seasonal storage, providing large-scale flexibility and unlocking further electrification potential. This event will present concrete case studies from various countries, highlighting recent developments and emerging trends.
