The U.S. energy storage industry has entered a “new phase of sustained, high-volume deployment,” according to the inaugural Energy Storage Market Outlook Q1 2026 released by the
In 2025, capacity growth from battery storage could set a record as we expect 18.2 GW of utility-scale battery storage to be added to the grid. U.S. battery storage already achieved record growth in 2024
Photovoltaic (PV) solar accounted for 58% of all new electricity-generating capacity additions through the third quarter of 2025, remaining the dominant form of new electricity-generating
For CELT 2025, the BTM PV forecast will be converted into 73 years of hourly forecasts, at the load zone-level, based on historical profiles of hourly capacity factors
The United States installed approximately 21.7 GWh (7.7 GW ac) of energy storage onto the electric grid in H1 2025. EIA projects that U.S. PV''s annual growth in 2025 will fall 13%, y/y, to 32 GWac before
While we''re focused on 2025, forward-thinkers are already whispering about quantum battery prototypes and space-based solar storage concepts. But let''s not get ahead of
Comprehensive guide to renewable energy storage technologies, costs, benefits, and applications. Compare battery, mechanical, and thermal storage systems for 2025.
The IEA PVPS Trends in Photovoltaic Applications 2025 report provides comprehensive data and analysis on global PV deployment, technology, and
In this study, we present a cradle-to-grave LCA of a typical silicon U.S. utility-scale PV (UPV) installation that is consistent with the utility system features documented in the National Renewable Energy
