Technical FAQs 4

Which energy storage technology is the most popular in Europe?

Pumped hydro is the most widely used technology for energy storage in Europe and worldwide, but batteries and hydrogen have come into the spotlight over the last decade as a recent trend in the energy storage market.

Why is energy storage important in the EU?

The European Union has created a comprehensive regulatory framework in recent years to promote the development and use of energy storage technologies. A central element of this framework is the recognition of energy storage as an independent component of the energy system in the EU electricity market directive.

What is the European energy storage inventory?

In March 2025, the Commission launched the European Energy Storage Inventory, a real-time dashboard that displays energy storage levels across different European countries. It is the first European-level tool of its kind and offers energy storage data across a full range of technologies.

What are the different types of storage technologies?

Thermal storage technologies, including salt melting memory, use thermal energy and are particularly suitable for applications that require long-term storage. Chemical storage technologies such as power-to-gas systems convert electrical energy into chemical energy sources such as hydrogen or methane.
