The LDES Deployment Toolkit identifies the priorities and enabling actions for key actors to speed deployment and unlock the powerful system benefits LDES. Learn more about LDES, enabling actions to accelerate deployment, and why the clean energy transition requires a global energy storage target.

Global Decarbonisation Requires an Energy Storage Target
As the world transitions away from fossil fuels, energy storage solutions are essential to address the variable nature of renewable energy resources and keep the energy transition on track. Commitments made by governments to accelerate the energy transition and rapidly develop renewable energy must be matched by efforts to deploy and scale energy storage technologies.
Learn why energy storage targets must be set at the upcoming COP29 global climate conference to ensure these energy storage assets are deployed on time and at scale.
LDES Deployment Enablers
As the world transitions away from fossil fuels, energy storage solutions are essential to address the variable nature of renewable energy resources and keep the energy transition on track. Energy grids increasingly will need to store surplus clean energy generated during times of high renewable supply and lower demand, and then release that energy as power and industrial heat during times of high demand and when renewable energy supply is low.
Seven enablers are identified to architect a supportive policy and market environment for LDES deployment and scaling. A significant step-up in action by diverse stakeholder groups is needed to ensure that LDES can be applied at scale.
