Data centres could drive sodium-ion, LDES adoption in Europe - analyst
Sodium-ion’s position has strengthened substantially in the past 12 months but its adoption in Europe depends on several key factors including data centres and their use case, an analyst said.

A big Q for me here is that current projects still rely on pipeline gas for long-duration storage - once the e-TES runs flat, gas firing keeps the heat going.
What happens to that business model as falling network utilisation pushes up gas prices? Can we realistically move to all-electric LDES?

(does anyone else see linepack gas as LDES, even *the* LDES to weigh others against? Don't know, don't care; it's all just fixed & marginal storage costs + fixed & marginal capacity costs + emissions - not hard to compare BESS vs PHES vs linepack gas vs tanked diesel on an equal basis)

Cyclic electric LDES is genuinely really hard - the capacity costs for gas storage are orders of magnitude below anything electrochemical. Not totally ruling out collapsing BESS costs, but I reckon price shocks from a disorderly gas drawdown also likely here (perhaps not in Gladstone...)

Capital Dynamics and Solo Renewables agree £100 million joint venture for LDES
Once operational, and assuming one discharge per day, the project will be able to provide the energy used by up to 36 000 households per day. Located in Islandmagee, the project received planning approval from Mid and East Antrim Borough Council in February 2026, just six months after submission. The 150 MW project can provide up to eight hours of storage capacity equivalent to 1200 MWh and is among the first large scale LDES storage sites to be developed in the Irish Single Electricity Market. With recent and anticipated regulatory developments, including the Renewable Electricity Price Guarantee (REPG), encouraging further investment in wind and solar generation across Northern Ireland, energy storage is expected to play an increasingly important role in supporting the integration of renewable power into the grid. While short-duration battery energy storage system (BESS) projects already contribute to grid stability, under refined regulatory conditions, longer-duration storage can provide critical additional flexibility to help manage variability in renewable generation and support a secure and reliable electricity system. As more renewable generation capacity comes online, additional flexibility will be required to support a grid that is already experiencing rising curtailment rates. LDES can help provide greater system balance by storing...

LDES is vaak minder efficient, dus als je moet kiezen tussen een bess met 90% opladen of een ldes met 40-70% ga je eerst voor de BESS.
