The first joint EASE/EERA Technology Development Roadmap on energy storage11 was published in 2013 with the goal of identifying the most pressing technology development priorities for the European energy storage industry. Given the evolution and advancements in the energy storage sector – and, indeed, the energy sector as a whole – over the past several years, EASE and EERA have joined forces once more to draft a significant update to the 2013 roadmap.

The roadmap provides a comprehensive overview of the energy storage technologies being developed in Europe today and identifies the RD&D needs in the coming decades. On this basis, the roadmap provides recommendations for R&D policies and regulatory changes needed to support the development and large-scale deployment of energy storage technologies. The aim is to inform policymakers for research, innovation, and demonstration in the energy storage sector in order to further strengthen Europe’s research and industrial competitiveness in the energy storage industry.
