Energy storage: Unlocking the full potential of renewable energy

As the energy transition gains pace and the UK progresses towards net zero, a new challenge emerges: how do we ensure the UK’s electricity grid system remains stable, resilient, and ready to deliver clean energy? In the third article of our ‘Powering up for net zero series’, Hannah Heck explores how energy storage can meet this challenge and help deliver clean power when and where it’s needed most.

About

Our mission

SLR’s purpose is Making Sustainability Happen.

We achieve this by having a team of expert advisors and technicians, who partner with our clients to tackle some of the world's most complex sustainability challenges, by utilising our collaborative and entrepreneurial ‘One Team’ culture.

South Africa has a well-developed onshore wind energy sector, but a recent World Bank study shows that South Africa's offshore wind potential could be more than 900 GW, with modelled wind speeds of between 8.5 to 10.5 m/s.

Developing offshore wind projects will be challenging. However, strategic considerations such as the location of the facility, offshore marine conditions, routing marine transmission cables and connecting to on land transmission network are just some of the factors that need to be considered. Enabling regulations will have to be created in an environment of evolving technology, whilst developers will also need to meet international good practice standards to be able to unlock capital to develop and finance projects.
