Niall Donnelly from our Energy Group has published a new article examining the evolving regulatory landscape for battery energy storage and hybrid energy projects in Ireland. The article explores recent decisions by the Commission for Regulation of Utilities (CRU), including reforms relating to Maximum Export Capacity (MEC) sharing and network charging arrangements for energy storage units, as well as the opportunities and challenges these developments present for developers, investors and large energy users.
It also considers key issues that remain to be addressed, including integrated hybrid project regulation, operational restrictions on battery storage assets and trading risks within Ireland’s centrally dispatched electricity market.
