Energy storage is one of several sources of power system flexibility that has gained the attention of power utilities, regulators, policymakers, and the media.2 Falling costs of storage
28,000 MW of storage capacity—on a net summer capacity basis—installed on the U.S. electricity grid.34 Pumped hydroelectric storage accounted for over 80 percent of this capacity, and lithium-ion batteries accounted for nearly 17 percent. Other technologies represent approximately 1 percent of total grid energy storage capacity.
Storage technologies have tremendous opportunities to support future grid operations and policymakers at federal and state levels have begun to implement diverse policies. Specifically, the federal government has various national capabilities to support policymaker decisions around energy storage: Energy Storage Grand Challenge.
The U.S. grid was built before energy storage technologies were widely available and no single planner is responsible for the U.S. power system. These differences could blur the lines between federal and state authority and lead to confusion over setting and enforcing rules, or become a major potential barrier to storage deployment.
For more information, contact Brian Bothwell at (202) 512-6888, Technologies to store energy at the utility-scale could help improve grid reliability, reduce costs, and promote the increased adoption of variable renewable energy sources such as solar and wind. Energy storage technology use has increased along with solar and wind energy.
Energy storage technology use is increasing on the grid and tens of thousands of MW of energy storage are projected to be added to the grid by 2025, according to EIA data. As previously discussed, over 10,000 MW of battery storage have been planned for construction between 2021 and 2023.
Several storage technologies are in use on the U.S. grid, including pumped hydroelectric storage, batteries, compressed air, and flywheels (see figure). Pumped hydroelectric and compressed air energy storage can be used to store excess energy for applications requiring 10 or more hours of storage.
