Credit: David Pimborough / Shutterstock. The government of the UK has launched a new investment support scheme aimed at bolstering the country's energy storage infrastructure. The initiative aims to encourage the development of long-duration energy storage (LDES) facilities, which have not seen significant investment in nearly four decades.
Long Duration Electricity Storage investment support scheme will boost investor confidence and unlock billions in funding for vital projects. The UK is a step closer to energy independence as the government launches a new scheme to help build energy storage infrastructure.
This announcement follows the £32.8 million funding awarded to 5 UK energy storage projects across the country in November 2022 to create first-of-a-kind prototypes of their technology. A total of £69 million of funding has been awarded so far through this programme, helping to drive innovative technologies such as energy storage.
Other technologies, such as liquid air energy storage, compressed air energy storage and flow batteries, could also benefit from the scheme. Studies suggest that deploying 20GW of LDES could save the electricity system £24bn between 2025 and 2050, potentially reducing household energy bills as reliance on costly natural gas decreases.
Compressed Air Energy Storage, or CAES, is essentially a form of energy storage technology. Ambient air is compressed and stored under pressure in underground caverns using surplus or off-peak power. During times of peak power usage, air is heated (and therefore expands), which drives a turbine to generate power that is then exported to the grid.
