Breakthroughs in battery technology are transforming the global energy landscape, fueling the transition to clean energy and reshaping industries from transportation to utilities.
Calculate exactly how much battery storage you need for backup power, bill savings, or off-grid living. Free calculator + expert sizing guide included.
Even though battery storage capacity is growing fast, in 2024 it was only 2% of the 1,230 GW of utility-scale electricity generating capacity in the United States.
Batteries account for 90% of the increase in storage in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, rising 14-fold to 1 200 GW by 2030.
The American Clean Power Association reported that the United States added a record 1,602-MW of battery storage capacity in the
The American Clean Power Association reported that the United States added a record 1,602-MW of battery storage capacity in the first quarter of 2025, equivalent to the

Batteries account for 90% of the increase in storage in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (NZE) Scenario, rising 14-fold to 1 200 GW by 2030. This includes both utility-scale and behind-the
After record growth in 2024, U.S. battery energy storage systems (BESS) could grow from more than 26 gigawatts (GW) of capacity—enough to power 20 million homes—to
Whether it''s in a phone, a plastic toy, or connected to a giant solar array, every battery''s purpose remains the same: store electricity
Whether it''s in a phone, a plastic toy, or connected to a giant solar array, every battery''s purpose remains the same: store electricity until it''s ready to be used. And in all
But it''s not a light lift. By 2050, BNEF found, around a third of total power demand must be flexible, enabled by an "extensive grid" and
But it''s not a light lift. By 2050, BNEF found, around a third of total power demand must be flexible, enabled by an "extensive grid" and managed via "the latest digital
The storage capacity of new energy batteries is typically quantified in terms of kilowatt-hours (kWh), which reflects the total amount of electrical energy that can be stored
Energy storage beyond lithium ion is rapidly transforming how we store and deliver power in the modern world. Advances in solid-state, sodium-ion, and flow batteries promise
