Global energy storage capacity outlook 2024, by country or state Leading countries or states ranked by energy storage capacity target worldwide in 2024 (in gigawatts)
Energy storage in particular can be adopted at the local level due to the flexible and scalable nature of the technology. As a result, with the wider adoption of community solar, interest in community energy storage (CES) is growing.
Community energy storage (CES) is expected to contribute positively towards energy transition while accommodating the needs and expectations of citizens and local communities. Yet, the technological and societal challenges of integrating CES in the largely centralized present energy system demand for socio-technical innovation.
As previously mentioned, most community energy storage projects in the United States are distribution sited and utility owned. The community indirectly benefits from cost-effective investments that reduce system costs. There is also the potential for distribution sited storage systems to improve local reliability and resiliency.
The community application is demonstrated to reduce the life-cycle cost of energy storage as high as 37% over the individual household application . Some authors, however, report that CES are not yet feasible .
Example: Gridflex Heeten Energy storage of size tens to hundreds of kWh installed in front of the meter and behind the transformer in the local neighborhoods with community ownership and governance as well as shared via the local physical grid. Example: Feldheim energy community
In this context, community ownership and governance of energy storage systems becomes very relevant. Yet, there can be resistance from the incumbent grid operator in providing grid access and for leasing or selling the physical network to the local communities operating CES.
