Reserve markets are currently driving the demand for energy storage systems. Legislative changes have improved prospects for some energy storages. Mainly battery storage and thermal energy storages have been deployed so far. The share of renewable energy sources is growing rapidly in Finland.
Wind power generation is estimated to grow substantially in the future in Finland. Energy storage may provide the flexibility needed in the energy transition. Reserve markets are currently driving the demand for energy storage systems. Legislative changes have improved prospects for some energy storages.
However, the energy system is still producing electricity to the national grid and DH to the Lempäälä area, while the BESSs participate in Fingrid's market for balancing the grid . Like the energy storage market, legislation related to energy storage is still developing in Finland.
Currently, utility-scale energy storage technologies that have been commissioned in Finland are limited to BESS (lithium-ion batteries) and TES, mainly TTES and Cavern Thermal Energy Storages (CTES) connected to DH systems.
