Keeping the power on inquiry: ESNZ Committee holds oral evidence session on role of energy storage and emerging technologies
The Energy Security and Net Zero Committee’s inquiry into how the UK’s energy mix needs to change to deliver enough capacity while delivering against Net Zero targets continues with a session focused on energy storage and the role of emerging technologies.
Meeting details
The first half of the session will explore the potential benefits of investment in energy storage and whether the Government needs to change its approach. MPs will also examine the specific issues around hydrogen storage and the potential of tidal range.
The second part of the hearing will examine the issues around tidal stream, wave energy, space-based solar power and geothermal energy. It will look at how the Government might support emerging energy technologies and the potential costs to the public.
