A large attendance at agendaNi’s energy storage conference in November showed the strong interest that exists in what has quickly become one of the most exciting fields in renewable technology and energy management. The conference was held in Titanic Belfast and was sponsored by Gaelectric and AES, two firms at the forefront of the energy storage industry. The application of the technology in commercial and industrial scale markets was discussed as well as crucial regulatory issues, an update from some exciting storage projects in development, as well as an overview from Professor Goran Strbac, one of the foremost academics in the field.
