Energy Storage Zone

The Backbone of a Renewable Energy System Starts Here

Storage isn’t just supporting the energy transition - it’s making it possible.

As Europe accelerates its move toward decentralised, renewable power, the role of energy storage has shifted from optional to essential. That’s why the Energy Storage Zone at Enlit Europe 2025 puts the spotlight on the technologies, services and strategies enabling secure, flexible and decarbonised energy systems.

This is where developers, utilities, grid operators, investors and technology providers connect to do business - across the full spectrum of short- and long-duration storage, from batteries and thermal to mechanical and chemical.
