Later, this process is reversed and the compressed air returns to the surface at
Incorporate energy storage into interconnection processes, reducing uncertainty around their deployment behind the meter and dictating how energy storage can charge and discharge.
A standalone energy storage project would not qualify. Many state governments have enacted, or are in the process of enacting, mandates or regulations to promote storage (see box 1). At the federal level, the risk currently is the lack of clarity about the regulatory treatment for energy storage. This is becoming more relevant in projects
The siting and feasibility aspects of a potential pumped-storage project are one major hurdle, but the licensing process through the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) is another that can add significant time – up to five years or more – on a development schedule for a new project and thus constrain its development.

However, for storage to realize its full potential, a robust regulatory framework is needed. In the European Union (EU), the role energy storage plays in EU power markets will be formally recognized in the Electricity Market Design Directive (recast), which is expected to be adopted in Q1/Q2 2019.

Each summary covers the sector's development and the legal and regulatory environment to consider in the deployment of energy storage projects.
Standalone energy storage projects are increasingly utility-scale installations. For example, a battery array can provide a range of services, including ancillary services, to the system operator or network owner. This type of project allows for the deferral of network reinforcement works or islanded networks.
In these projects, the energy storage technology will be developed alongside a generation facility. An example of a co-located project could be a solar park developed alongside a battery; in times of high generation or low energy prices, the battery can store the solar-generated power, to be exported later, at the evening peak.
Energy storage (ES) plays a key role in the energy transition to low-carbon economies due to the rising use of intermittent renewable energy in electrical grids. Among the different ES technologies, compressed air energy storage (CAES) can store tens to hundreds of MW of power capacity for long-term applications and utility-scale.
