Energy Storage Europe Association reply to the European Commission’s Public Consultation and Call for Evidence Feedback on proposal for a Net-Zero Industry Act (NZIA) Implementing Act aiming at further specifying non-price criteria for renewable energy auctions.

ENTSO-E 10-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP)
The ENTSO-E 10-Year Network Development Plan (TYNDP) is the pan-European electricity infrastructure development plan. It examines the future power system as a whole and explores how interconnections and energy storage can support the energy transition in a cost-effective and secure manner. Energy Storage Europe Association has responded to the consultation questions, rearranging the order of the questions according to its priorities.
Energy Storage Europe Association feedback calls for a more balanced consideration of energy storage technologies and a clearer breakdown of the economic impacts and costs of proposed scenarios. A more technology-neutral approach and improved data presentation (including capacity metrics) are recommended.

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.
