Grid Capacity & Flexibility

A resilient, flexible grid is the backbone of Europe’s energy transition. As renewable energy penetration grows, challenges such as curtailment and mismatches between supply and demand emerge across territories. Energy storage, demand-side flexibility, and integrated grid planning are essential tools to maximise clean energy use, maintain system stability, and prevent lost renewable production. Regional and Local Energy Agencies support the deployment of storage solutions, facilitate innovative flexibility measures, and advise authorities on tailored policies and investment strategies. Ensuring that no kilowatt—and no territory—is left behind is key to turning Europe’s climate ambition into real impact.
