In our latest EMEA EMI Talks, we explore the case for energy companies to include battery storage as a valuable addition to their sustainable investments portfolios. We look at key considerations for battery storage projects in the EU market, including how regulatory frameworks and support schemes can make a significant difference to the success of an energy company's projects.

The EU Taxonomy is a mechanism that aims to accelerate the European energy transition to a low-carbon economy. It is the foundational system on which to classify an activity as 'sustainable' for the next steps of the initiative that relate to reforming the financial system and public and private investment practices. Partner Andy Moody and Associate and member of the Baker McKenzie Brussels Energy Group William-James Kettlewell discuss the impact of the EU Taxonomy mechanism on businesses that are active in the energy and renewables sectors.
