The growing interest in carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) projects driven by supportive policies and tax incentives has prompted state efforts to streamline permitting requirements, including securing primacy to regulate Class VI injection wells to sequester carbon dioxide. CCS involves the capture of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from power plants or industrial processes before they are released into the atmosphere for storage in subsurface geological formations.

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.
