EASE and LCP-Delta are pleased to announce the publication of the eighth edition of the European Market Monitor on Energy Storage (EMMES). The Market Monitor is an interactive database that tracks over 3,000 energy storage projects. With information on assets in over 29 countries, it is the largest and most detailed archive of European storage. The database is accompanied by a report which outlines key EU legislation, drivers and barriers for 14 core countries, future projects and forecasts to 2030.

Updated Input Data and Assumptions for the Cost-Benefit Analysis for Limited Energy Reservoirs
The update was requested by CE NRAs to consider recent developments in Frequency Containment Reserves costs and CE power system behaviour. The updated inputs will reflect the most recent frequency data, advancements in Limited Energy Reservoir (LER) technology, and changes in the CE power system. This will ensure a more accurate and up-to-date CBA, leading to a more effective Tmin LER definition that can better maintain steady-state frequency during alert states.
EASE has replied to ENTSO-E consultation on the updated input data and assumptions for the Cost-Benefit Analysis for Limited Energy Reservoirs. EASE stands behind these objectives and believes that a more accurate definition of Tmin LER is essential for the efficient, reliable, and cost-effective operation of energy storage systems.

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.
Energy Storage Europe has prepared a reply to the European Commission's public consultation on TYNDP 2026 Identification of System Needs Methodology. The European Commission’s public consultation seeks feedback on the analytical framework used by ENTSO-E to identify cost-efficient and technically robust opportunities for the development of Europe’s electricity system, without prescribing specific investment decisions.
In 2025, the energy storage sector experienced significant growth, driven by strong market expansion and evolving EU policy developments. Europe reached the milestone of 100 GW of installed capacity, highlighting the increasing importance of storage in the energy transition.
