Energy storage

The green transition is transforming the landscape of energy supply. With an increasing number of weather-dependent energy sources, there is a growing need to store energy to ensure a consistent supply, manage peak loads, and maintain a balanced electricity grid. At the same time, energy storage creates opportunities for new revenue streams through support services such as frequency regulation and reserve capacity. However, selecting the appropriate technology and sizing an energy storage facility for maximum profitability necessitates an in-depth understanding of both the system and the market.

RISE supports companies and organisations throughout the entire process, from preliminary studies and technology selection to simulation, testing, implementation and demonstration. Whether the focus is on battery solutions for industrial machinery and work vehicles, hydrogen storage or thermal systems for high-temperature processes, RISE provides independent analyses, technological infrastructure and systems perspectives. Research projects in areas such as electrofuels and modular battery systems are developing new knowledge that is driving the Swedish energy transition forward.
