Energy storage is not a new technology. The earliest gravity-based pumped storage system was developed in Switzerland in 1907 and has since been widely applied globally. However, from an industry perspective, energy storage is still in its early stages of development.
Energy storage first passed through a technical verification phase during the 12th Five-year Plan period, followed by a second phase of project demonstrations and promotion during the 13th Five-year Plan period. These phases have laid a solid foundation for the development of technologies and applications for large-scale development.
Just as planned in the Guiding Opinions on Promoting Energy Storage Technology and Industry Development, energy storage has now stepped out of the stage of early commercialization and entered a new stage of large-scale development.
Storage enables electricity systems to remain in balance despite variations in wind and solar availability, allowing for cost-effective deep decarbonization while maintaining reliability. The Future of Energy Storage report is an essential analysis of this key component in decarbonizing our energy infrastructure and combating climate change.
Throughout 2020, energy storage industry development in China displayed five major characteristics: 1. New Integration Trends Appeared The integration of renewable energy with energy storage became a general trend in 2020.
The use of energy storage technologies has increased exponentially due to huge energy demands by the population. These devices instead of having several advantages are limited by a few drawbacks like the toxic waste generation and post-disposal problems associated with them.

In 2019, New York passed the nation-leading Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act (Climate Act), which codified some of the most aggressive energy and climate goals in the country, including 1,500 MW of energy storage by 2025 and 3,000 MW by 2030. In June 2024, New York’s Public Service Commission. . Energy storage technologies and systems are regulated at the federal, state, and local levels, and must undergo rigorous safety testing to be authorized for installation in New York. You can download NYSERDA’s. . On June 20, 2024, the New York Public Service Commission approved the Order Establishing Updated Energy Storage Goal and Deployment. [pdf]
Storage will increase the resilience and efficiency of New York’s grid, which will be powered by 70% renewable energy by 2030, and 100% carbon-free electricity by 2040. Additionally, energy storage can stabilize supply during peak electric usage and help keep critical systems online during an outage.
“The completion of the Northern New York Energy Storage project marks an important step to reaching New York's energy storage and climate goals." The project, located in Chateaugay, about 40 miles northwest of Plattsburgh, is the Power Authority’s first utility-scale battery project and the first one built by New York State.
The ambitious new goal will be achievable with state support, said Bill Acker, executive director of the New York Battery and Energy Storage Technology (NY-BEST) consortium, “The work that has been done over the past year has led to an understanding of the need for a greater amount of storage to facilitate a clean energy grid.”
The Roadmap proposed a comprehensive set of recommendations to expand New York’s energy storage programs to cost-effectively unlock the rapid growth of renewable energy across the State and bolster grid reliability and customer resilience.
Governor Kathy Hochul today announced that New York’s first state-owned utility-scale battery energy storage project is now operating in the North Country’s Franklin County.
Alliance for Clean Energy Director of Membership Services & Policy Analyst New York Kyle Rabin said, “ACE NY applauds Governor Hochul, the New York State Public Service Commission, and NYSERDA on this important step to achieving a greater deployment of energy storage across the state.
