Battery storage boost to power greener electricity grid
- Government changes planning rules to maximise UK’s renewable energy storage and create hundreds of new green jobs
- changes will make it easier to build larger batteries – ensuring renewable energy can be stored and used all year round
- over 100 large-scale batteries could now be built, trebling the amount already in operation
The government today announced it will relax planning legislation to make it easier to construct large batteries to store renewable energy from solar and wind farms across the UK.
