Why Choose this Training Course

Energy storage is rapidly becoming a critical component of modern power systems as electricity markets integrate increasing levels of renewable generation. As solar and wind penetration grows, storage technologies are playing a central role in maintaining grid stability, improving flexibility, and enabling new commercial opportunities in electricity markets.

This energy storage systems training course provides a comprehensive overview of the evolving energy storage landscape, focusing on the technologies, economic drivers and practical project development considerations shaping the sector today. Participants will examine the current status of battery technologies—including lithium-ion, sodium-based systems and emerging alternatives—along with the implications of critical mineral supply chains, safety risks and long-term battery degradation.

The energy storage systems training also explores the key technical and commercial issues involved in planning energy storage projects, including grid integration requirements, land and infrastructure considerations, and the financial factors that determine project viability. Participants will gain insight into the main storage applications such as grid support, ancillary services, peak power management and energy arbitrage, as well as the challenges and opportunities associated with contracts, market-based revenues and revenue stacking.

Through practical examples and financial modelling concepts—including storage cashflow analysis and Levelised Cost of Storage (LCOS)—the course provides a clear framework for assessing the economic value of storage projects. It also examines the integration of storage with renewable energy assets such as solar and wind, and explores emerging technologies including longer-duration storage solutions, battery alternatives and the role of e-fuels such as hydrogen and ammonia in future energy systems.

Finally, the energy storage systems training course reviews the policy and regulatory environment shaping storage deployment and discusses how utility-scale systems and distributed storage solutions are likely to coexist within evolving electricity markets. By the end of the programme, participants will have a clearer understanding of how energy storage technologies are developing, how projects are structured commercially, and how storage can be strategically deployed to support the energy transition.

We are also a proud member of the Energy Institute of UK.
