Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are a key component of the transition to a low-carbon economy. They enable the integration of variable renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, into the grid by storing excess electricity when supply exceeds demand and releasing it when demand exceeds supply. They also provide a range of ancillary services, such as frequency regulation, voltage control and black start capability, that help maintain the stability and reliability of the grid.

With over 2,600 wind turbines in UK waters and 13.7 of gigawatts of power – a number only surpassed globally by China – the UK offshore wind story is, so far, a success in terms of energy produced. However, the UK has missed a trick in maximising the associated jobs: France and Denmark are leading Europe’s production of offshore wind turbine blades; Spain leads in manufacturing turbine towers; and foundations and electrical substations are increasingly produced in Asia. Floating wind technology now offers the UK a new chance to drive job creation in offshore wind.
