Energy Storage Ireland in 2019 recognised that solutions such as Pumped Storage Hydro (PSH), Liquid Air Energy Storage (LAES), Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) and others require locations with specific geographical characteristics which are not particularly common on in Ireland.
There are significant delays in the planning permission and grid development processes in Ireland. This is significantly impacting the deliverability of projects as they get 'stuck' in processes. Currently storage assets in Ireland earn on average 80% of their revenues from the System Services market.

In general, they have not been widely used in electricity networks because their cost is considerably high and their profit margin is low. However, climate concerns, carbon reduction effects, increase in renewable energy use, and energy security put pressure on adopting the storage concepts and facilities as complementary to renewables.
Increased interest in electrical energy storage is in large part driven by the explosive growth in intermittent renewable sources such as wind and solar as well as the global drive towards decarbonizing the energy economy.
The total number of microgrid projects such as energy storage in the station area is low but the growth rate is high, and the total proportion of grid-side energy storage is 63.
