Let’s start with the bad news: the transport sector is the only European sector in which greenhouse gas emissions have risen since 1990. Now, the good news: it is possible to reduce these emissions.

Storage Stories: EASE First External Newsletter is Now Online
We are proud to announce that the first EASE external newsletter was just sent to over 3.000 contacts.
"Storage Stories" is an overview of selected energy storage hot topics, sent directly to your mailbox three times per year.
Clean energy technologies are developing at an incredible pace, and energy storage is no exception. Staying up to date with the latest policy and technical developments can be challenging. This is why we decided to create this external newsletter.

In 2025, Europe surpassed 100 GW of installed storage capacity for the first time, and by Q2 2026 storage overtook nuclear as a source of installed power capacity. With electrochemical storage forecast to grow by a further 153 GW by 2030, energy storage is becoming a core pillar of Europe's future electricity system.

Thermal Energy Storage can help European industry decarbonise, reduce costs, and access new revenue streams. Yet significant regulatory, economic, and financial barriers continue to limit its deployment.
Energy Storage Europe welcomes the proposal for an Industrial Accelerator Act (IAA) and supports its overall objective of strengthening industrial capacity, accelerating decarbonisation, and creating stronger lead markets for strategic clean technologies in the European Union.
