There are some notable differences however; the first stage is to identify if your electricity storage project will utilise a new or existing network connection and you will need to know if you are looking to pair the electricity storage with other forms of generation (e.g solar) because the application depends on the total combined capacity if adding to (new or existing) generation.

Trade association Solar Energy UK (SEUK) said it expects solar generation to "considerably exceed" the target set in CP30 (of reaching 45GW-47GW solar generation capacity by 2030). CP30 does state there is "scope to exceed" the 45GW-47GW figure, "subject to system need, noting for example the potential of rooftop solar to boost deployment".
Bulk-power grid connection is an emerging bottleneck to the entry of wind, solar, and storage but has been understudied due to a lack of data.
