The push to expand energy storage capacity reflects the drive for more resilient and flexible energy systems to support the shift to clean energy. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) anticipates significant growth in energy storage with nearly 36 gigawatts (GW) added by the end of 2028 based on plans reported by utilities. At the end of 2023, U.S. electric utilities reported operating about 15.8 GW of battery storage capacity.
