Net Zero. Under a future energy system dominated by renewables, the supply of energy will increasingly be determined by the strength of wi gy grid. Unlike other forms of energy, electricity cannot be stored directly and requires conversion into alternative energy forms for effective storage.
Zenobe Energy is the largest independent owner and operator of battery storage in the UK. It buys and manages grid-scale batteries for its commercial customers, such as utilities and electric-vehicle operators. Highview Power’s CRYOBattery delivers, clean, reliable, and cost-efficient long-duration.
Today we publish the UK’s first battery strategy, alongside the Advanced Manufacturing Plan. This includes the government’s commitment to over £2 billion in new capital and R&D funding being made available for the automotive sector, supporting the manufacturing and development of zero emission.
Battery storage is essential for providing the security and flexibility that will make our future energy system resilient and reliable. Effective use of battery storage will also provide energy system cost savings and benefits for businesses and consumers by enabling energy that is produced a
