About Energy Storage
Energy storage systems active in this market generally charge when electricity prices are low, which is typically when renewable generation is high, and discharge at times of peak demand.
In Ireland, demand for home battery storage systems — even without solar panels — is growing rapidly as homeowners look to reduce costs and gain energy independence.
As renewable energy solutions become more popular in Ireland, many homeowners are looking into home battery storage systems. A 5kW battery can be an essential part of a solar power setup, helping to store excess energy for later use. Understanding the cost of these batteries is crucial for anyone considering this investment.
By contributing to security of supply, helping to support renewable capacity, and displacing fossil fuels in the balancing market, energy storage can deliver a net saving to end consumers in Ireland of up to €85m per year.
Statkraft delivered the first energy storage project in Ireland with Fluence in 2020, at its Kilathmoy wind farm and the company has continued to have a strong presence in the Irish energy storage field since then. The company is also lining up another milestone project soon, with the country's first four-hour duration energy storage system.
