TALENT at Energy Storage Global Conference on 19-21 October in Brussels, Belgium

TALENT was present at the fourth edition of the Energy Storage Global Conference (ESGC), which offers a unique opportunity to industry, researchers and policymakers to exchange views on key issues for the storage sector. This year’s edition took place in a hybrid (digital + in-person) event format, from 19 to 21 October, with the in-person sessions hosted in Brussels, Belgium.

On day 2 of the ESGC, focusing on the preconditions and the impact of coupling storage with renewables, our partner from cyberGRID, Darja Skrt, was invited to speak on the cost-effective integration of batteries into the grid, in the example of EU-funded R&D project TALENT, during the session entitled “Centralised Storage Systems - How to Support Energy Storage as the Key to Increase Renewable Energy”.

Representatives from around the world came together for three days to discuss the latest developments in energy storage technologies, regulatory and policy frameworks, and the future storage market. With such an audience, this event was a great opportunity to explain the project and showcase EU excellence in research and development of electric storage batteries in the grid that will lead to an increase of the flexibility in the energy system.
