The Department of Energy''s (DOE) Energy Storage Strategy and Roadmap (SRM) represents a significantly expanded strategic revision on the original ESGC 2020 Roadmap.
This SRM does not address new policy actions, nor does it specify budgets and resources for future activities. This Energy Storage SRM responds to the Energy Storage Strategic Plan periodic update requirement of the Better Energy Storage Technology (BEST) section of the Energy Policy Act of 2020 (42 U.S.C. § 17232 (b) (5)).
Maine also set its goal in 2021 to achieve 400 MW of installed storage capacity by 2030, with an interim target of 300 MW by 2025. New York originally set a goal to procure 3 GW of energy storage by 2030, but New York Governor Kathy Hochul most recently announced plans to double that goal to reach 6 GW by 2030.
Approximately 16 states have adopted some form of energy storage policy, which broadly fall into the following categories: procurement targets, regulatory adaption, demonstration programs, financial incentives, and consumer protections. Below we give an overview of each of these energy storage policy categories.
In 2013, the CPUC issued Decision (D.)13-10-040 which set an AB 2514 energy storage procurement target of 1,325 megawatts (MW) by 2020. The CPUC's energy storage procurement policy was formulated with three primary goals: Greenhouse gas (GHG) reductions in support of the State's targets.
This rulemaking identified energy storage end uses and barriers to deployment, considered a variety of possible policies to encourage the cost-effective deployment of energy storage systems, including refinement of existing procurement methods to properly value energy storage systems. This rulemaking resulted in two CPUC Decisions, which are:
CPUC staff received comments on the RFI and updated the RFP for release. More information on the energy storage program and projects evaluation RFP can be access at Cal eprocure. The energy storage program and projects evaluation Bidders' Library can be accessed here. The CPUC engaged Lumen Energy Strategy, LLC to conduct the study.
