Energy Storage: From Mid-Scale Lessons to Mega-Projects 

As energy storage moves from mid-scale demonstrations to utility-scale deployments, understanding key lessons from smaller projects is critical. This panel explores how insights from mid-scale storage can inform the planning, execution, and integration of mega-projects, ensuring maximum value across the grid. Experts will discuss strategies for managing technological, financial, and regulatory risks while scaling, and examine how different storage technologies can be optimally deployed at varying scales. Attendees will gain practical guidance on bridging the gap between pilot projects and large-scale energy storage solutions.

Discussion Points:

What lessons from mid-scale storage projects are most critical when planning and executing mega-scale deployments?

How can energy storage technologies be optimally integrated into the grid to maximise value across different scales?

What strategies help manage technological, financial, and regulatory risks when scaling from demonstration projects to utility-scale storage?
