The state projects that more than 48,000 MW of battery storage and 4,000 MW of long duration storage will be needed by 2045. Long duration energy storage systems are especially important, as they can provide up to 10 hours of power–more than double the four hours of power provided by traditional battery storage technology.
It’s not a partisan issue. ERCOT, which operates Texas’ electrical grid, has more than 14,000 megawatts of batteries online, a nearly threefold increase from early 2023. California and Texas are constantly trading places as the top state for battery storage.
Battery energy storage is not without challenges, however. Lithium-ion batteries — the most common type used for energy storage — typically have about four to six hours of capacity. It’s enough to support the grid during peak hours as the sun sets, but can still leave some gaps to be filled by natural gas.
They make up about 2,500 MW of total storage statewide, or about 16% of the battery storage total. The state projects that more than 48,000 MW of battery storage and 4,000 MW of long duration storage will be needed by 2045.
