States across the U.S. are increasingly embracing energy storage solutions to complement their clean energy initiatives. The growing share of renewables continues to drive the expansion of battery storage technologies, which can help integrate intermittent resources into the grid. U.S. battery storage capacity is projected to double this year, with planned additions of 14.3 gigawatts (GW), according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

There is a growing focus on enhancing oversight, transparency, and stakeholder engagement in the integrated resource planning process for electric utilities across various states. The pursuit for a low-carbon future is driving the need for innovative policy initiatives to maximize renewable energy utilization and maintain grid reliability. Integrated resource plans (IRPs) that utilities file with state commissions identify the optimal mix of resources required to serve customers over a long-term planning horizon.

As renewables continue to grow in the move towards a low-carbon future, energy storage is critical to mitigate the variability of wind and solar resources and enhance reliability and resiliency of the electric grid. Federal and state actions continue to facilitate the adoption of storage as a key solution in this transition. U.S. utility-scale battery storage capacity is expected to increase from 1.5 gigawatts (GW) in 2020 to 30 GW in 2025, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.
