California and Texas are at the forefront, demonstrating that we don’t need more grid power—we need smarter, more resilient solutions. Battery storage allows us to capture excess solar energy and deploy it during peak demand, reducing our reliance on the traditional grid. This approach supports sustainable energy and enhances grid resilience, ensuring reliable power even during disruptions. California’s progressive approach and Texas’s unique energy landscape highlight the transformative potential of integrated battery storage and solar power. We can create a more sustainable, reliable, and independent energy future by focusing on these technologies and less on the grid.

Big A$$ Batteries: across the country, power companies are increasingly using giant batteries the size of shipping containers to address renewable energy’s biggest weakness: the fact that the wind and sun aren’t always available. https://lnkd.in/gqkRCwZm #Batteries #RenewableEnergy

Managing Partner @GridVest | making battery storage systems more accessible and financially attractive.
Battery storage now makes economic sense virtually everywhere in the US and it's one of the best ways to support the electrical grid to move towards a cleaner transition.
In case you missed it, batteries have increased 10x in the US in the last three years and are solving all kinds of challenges for the grid, increasing the utilization of renewable energy and reducing reliance on gas peaker plants. This year stationary storage is expected to double. GridVest is excited to be making it easier and cheaper to procure battery storage systems at commercial & industrial facilities and distribution level grids in the 250kWH to 10MWH+ range.

Great piece from the NYT on the impact of batteries on highly decarbonised grids. What's true in California will be true for much of Europe (indeed already is for Spain!) - batteries will need to take a leap forward in the system to provide reliability and to strengthen the market signals for renewable generation
⚡Power up your day with this read: Yesterday, the The New York Times published a piece on the pivotal role that big batteries - including Form's multi-day batteries - will play on electric grids across the country as they accelerate to meet the growing demand for low-cost, clean power. Learn more about the ways that energy storage - and specifically long-duration and multi-day energy storage - can ensure a clean, reliable and efficient electric grid in the article here: https://lnkd.in/evADdUb8

Battery energy storage systems play a key role in the clean energy transition; by charging during times of plentiful electricity and discharging during heavy loads, energy storage smooths out demand for a more reliable, less carbon-intensive grid. Read about how batteries are already making a difference in grids across the country:

Excellent article from The New York Times time on the advent of battery storage as a part of the US energy mix. However, like many articles, the sharp focus on storage neglects regional transmission build-out as the necessary counterpart in balancing the variability of renewables. Overall, the article is an effective intro to the use of grid batteries today and the contrasts between the approaches of Texas and California.
