The UK Government has just announced plans to unlock investment opportunities in new, large-scale, energy-storage-capacity projects, the scale of which have not been built in the UK for over four decades.
The aim is to create a reliable backup to deliver the full potential of renewable energy – a critical component of Britain’s clean-energy transition – to address the intermittent nature of wind and solar power, by providing energy storage, grid-balancing and security of supply. This strategic move could lead to billions in energy system savings and, ultimately, much lower energy bills. https://www.scotsman.com/news/opinion/columnists/highlands-pump-storage-hydro-schemes-pay-ps660-year-every-family-4828552?fbclid=IwY2xjawGBmpBleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHeSarglO_2CwTEMd-IOeFSyoeian2n8ruZF7n-CR2LiKs2fcfGqYoECLsw_aem_jiJKvSKxb02t4O_9zUdqDA
