3 FAQs about [French Southern Territories mechanical storage of energy]

Is AFRR the future of battery storage in France?

France also shares common frequency regulation markets with much of Europe and some of these, notably the newly-introduced automated Frequency Restoration Reserve (aFRR), are being seen as important revenue streams that could be stacked to further the business case for battery storage in the continent.

Is France a good place to invest in battery storage assets?

This is all the more encouraging because unlike the UK, there are only two revenue streams available for battery storage assets in France today. The other is frequency control reserve (FCR), aka primary control reserve (PCR), what could be seen as the first rung of the ancillary services ladder.

Does France have a solar PV system?

Many of France’s island territories overseas have sizeable battery storage systems paired with solar PV plants and the country has pioneer low carbon capacity market auctions since early 2020.
