Expected increase in new energy storage capacity

Renewable electricity – Renewables 2025 – Analysis

Globally, renewable power capacity is projected to increase almost 4 600 GW between 2025 and 2030 – double the deployment of the previous five years (2019-2024). Growth in utility-scale and distributed

Solar, battery storage to lead new U.S. generating capacity additions

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

Global Energy Storage Growth Upheld by New Markets

The global energy storage market is poised to hit new heights yet again in 2025. Despite policy changes and uncertainty in the world''s two largest markets, the US and China, the sector

US utility-scale energy storage to double, reach 65 GW by 2027: EIA

Utility-scale battery storage in the United States is poised to more than double over the next two years and will close out 2026 at nearly 65 GW — a rapid rise from 17 GW in the first quarter

EIA: 99%+ of new US capacity in 2026 will be solar, wind + storage

Solar, wind, and batteries are set to supply virtually all net new US generating capacity in 2026, according to the latest EIA data.

US Energy Storage Installations Reach New Quarterly Record in Q2

Community-scale, commercial and industrial (CCI) storage expanded more modestly at 38 MW. This represents an 11% year-over-year increase. California and New York led Q2 CCI

U.S. battery capacity increased 66% in 2024

In 2025, capacity growth from battery storage could set a record as operators report plans to add 19.6 GW of utility-scale battery storage to the grid, according to our January 2025

Energy Storage Outlook

Global installed energy storage is on a steep upward trajectory. From just under 0.5 terawatts (TW) in 2024, total capacity is expected to rise ninefold to over 4 TW by 2040, driven by

US deployed 11.9GW of storage in 2024, 18.2GW coming in 2025

BESS deployment data for 2024 and forecasts for 2025 have been released by BloombergNEF and the Energy Information Administration (EIA) respectively. The US added a
