According to the Energy Storage Association (ESA), the policy tools fall under three categories which are value, access and competition . The policy should increase the value of ESS by establishing deployment targets, incentive programs and creating markets for it.
ESS policies mostly promote energy storage by providing incentives, soft loans, targets and a level playing field. Nevertheless, a relatively small number of countries around the world have implemented the ESS policies.
The need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions has catalysed the rapid growth of renewable energy worldwide. However, the intermittent nature of renewable energy requires the support of energy storage systems (ESS) to provide ancillary services and save excess energy for use at a later time.
