The United States and global energy storage markets have experienced rapid growth that is expected to continue. An estimated 387 gigawatts (GW) (or 1,143 gigawatt hours (GWh)) of new energy storage capacity is expected to be added globally from 2022 to 2030, which would result in the size of global energy storage capacity

One challenge of the EU energy transition is the integration of renewable electricity generation in the distri- bution system. EU energy law proposes a possible solution by introducing " citizen energy communities " (Directive 2019/944/EU) which may be open for " cross-border participation " . This article proposes an inno- vative way of
