Our energy storage systems are used in utility-scale, commercial and industrial, and microgrid applications.
The exponential growth of US energy storage capacity since 2020 has been dominated by lower cost and shorter duration lithium-ion batteries (typically 0 to 4 hours). There continues to be a major gap when it comes to long-duration energy storage, also known as LDES.
By the end of 2023, over 4 GW of battery-based energy storage was operational across Great Britain and Ireland, two of the leading energy storage markets in Europe, with the buildout continuing to increase in 2024. As island systems with high renewable penetration and congested grids, both markets have a critical need for storage.

Increasing solar and wind penetration brings new challenges for policy makers, regulators and power utilities in terms of system planning and operation. Electricity storage helps to address key technical and economic challenges related to variable renewable energy (VRE) integration.
First, storage is a technology that can be deployed at the generation, transmission, and distribution levels . Secondly, storage can contribute to energy markets, capacity markets, and ancillary markets. Within the ancillary market, storage is capable of providing a single service or several services simultaneously.
Being able to associate a monetary value to storage technologies aids utilities and system operators to better plan for their energy mix future (i.e. minimize cost), and aids investors in more accurately calculating returns on their investments.
