Battery Energy Storage for the U S Grid

4 FAQs about [Battery Energy Storage for the U S Grid]

What is a battery energy storage system?

A battery energy storage system (BESS) is an electrochemical device that charges (or collects energy) from the grid or a power plant and then discharges that energy at a later time to provide electricity or other grid services when needed.

How many MW is battery energy storage?

In 2010, only 4 megawatts (MW) of utility-scale battery energy storage was added in the United States. In July 2024, more than 20.7 GW of battery energy storage capacity was available in the United States. Battery energy storage systems provide electricity to the power grid and offer a range of services to support electric power grids.

What is grid-scale battery storage?

Battery storage is a technology that enables power system operators and utilities to store energy for later use.

Are utility-scale battery energy storage systems a source of electric power?

Utility-scale battery energy storage systems have been growing quickly as a source of electric power capacity in the United States in recent years. In the first seven months of 2024, operators added 5 gigawatts (GW) of capacity to the U.S. electric power grid, according to data in our July 2024 electric generator inventory.
