Technical FAQs 4

How does electricity storage work in Switzerland?

Electricity storage is not separately defined in the Swiss legislative framework. The biggest obstacle for electricity companies is to obtain a construction permit and a concession for the operation of a pumped storage plant, which is granted for a maximum of 80 years.

Why is energy storage important?

Energy storage is a crucial technology for the integration of intermittent energy sources such as wind and solar and to ensure that there is enough energy available during high demand

Can EV battery storage help balance power supply and demand?

Leveraging a two-way flow of electricity from EV battery storage to balance power supply and demand could also help global efforts to integrate more renewables in the power mix. EVs can charge when renewable energy generation from wind or the sun is high or when there is lower demand for electricity ( e.g. when people are sleeping).

What is electrical energy storage (EES)?

Is one of the four Conformity Assessment Systems administered by the IEC The need for electrical energy storage (EES) will increase significantly over the coming years. With the growing penetration of wind and solar, surplus energy could be captured to help reduce generation costs and increase energy supply.
