Does storing energy mean storing value?

Financing the energy transition: Insights for the finance community

In this “Financing the energy transition” hybrid seminar on 7 November in Frankfurt, we explored how energy storage will play an integral role in the increased need for flexibility.

Our fireside chat consists of the following people:

  • Marco Bertazzi, Investment Manager Renewables Storage, Encavis
  • Loïc Cerulus, Investment Director, Energy Storage Lead, DIF Capital Partners
  • Michael Boch, Senior Consultant, Battery Storage, DNV
  • Martijn Maandag, Director Due Diligence, Global Key Account Manager, DNV.

The global energy landscape is undergoing a major shift. As VRES capacity surges by a factor of seven, the global need for flexibility will almost double. Venturing toward 2050, the intertwined tales of energy storage and flexibility take centre stage. From Li-ion batteries to innovative grid features, the shift is palpable, with Li-ion batteries emerging as the primary source of flexibility worldwide. These batteries will either be integrated with renewables or operate as standalone systems. 

Flexibility as a lynchpin - the transition to greater flexibility is not just about equipment. It demands tangible modifications like retrofitting specific parts and significant investment in automation and analytics.
