The course aims to provide participants with the necessary understanding on how to structure regulation for energy storage across different power markets. It covers energy storage in its multiple forms, with a technology-neutral approach when it comes to regulatory recommendations around storage. It provides participants with the necessary understanding of energy storage technologies both at utility and residential levels, and with the ability to consequently define regulatory measures that ensure energy storage in its multiple forms can be deployed in the power market, and benefit consumers across multiple dimensions, at either wholesale power market level, or at the level of ancillary services to the power grid.
Participants will consequently gain the understanding of the regulation and tools to either structure or modify regulatory frameworks to ensure energy storage can be effectively deployed, or to assess regulatory regimes in order to understand whether or not a regulatory framework is fit for energy storage. The course is therefore aimed at professionals working in and around energy regulators, as well as those interested in understanding how a regulatory regime can affect the deployment of energy storage.
This course is eligible for 5 CER credits. More information on the Certified Energy Regulator (CER).
