Now in its 11th year and a firm fixture on the industry calendar, the Energy Storage Summit 2026 opened yesterday in London, UK.
Hosted by our publisher, Solar Media—part of the Informa Group—the conference brought nearly 2,000 guests and more exhibitors than ever before to the banks of the River Thames.
While the conversations and debates are set to continue for the second and final day today, here are some of the highlights from Day One, as observed by the Energy-Storage.news team, with help from our colleagues across Solar Power Portal, PV Tech and EV Infrastructure News (EVIN).
We’ll add more to this blog as coverage rolls on. In the meantime, you can download the digital edition of our Energy Storage Report 2026, which is being distributed at the event.
