Limited Storage Hampers Renewable Energy in Europe
Due to the intermittent nature inherent to most sources of renewable energy, storage infrastructure will be critical to the transition to clean energy. Such facilities allow renewable energy providers to store energy produced in peak generation hours and disburse it when demand peaks. However, with Europe boasting limited energy storage infrastructure, the continent’s efforts to move away from fossil fuels effectively are being hampered. Consequently, investing in storage infrastructure could help European nations shake off their reliance on fossil fuels at a more accelerated pace. Renewable energy sources like solar and wind are capable of producing large amounts of clean…
