Keynote Panel: Prospecting New Market Opportunities

Synopsis

The million dollar question- where is the next market for energy storage?

As the storage market matures and GWs are deployed in states such as Texas and California, new decarbonization mandates have been set, the potential for market saturation looms, regulatory changes are afoot and developers are faced with longer queue times. What have been these impacts on market prospects, economics and the deployment of energy storage in developing markets?

When expanding to new horizons there are a number of points to consider:

• Regional attractiveness and the weigh up of costs and benefits for permitting and interconnection
• The potential for new revenue streams in differing markets
• Future market regulatory changes and asset economics
• Expected impacts from the scaling back of offshore wind
• Load serving vs arbitrage in emerging markets
