California is a world leader in energy storage with the largest fleet of batteries that store energy for the electricity grid. Energy storage is an important tool to support grid reliability and complement the state’s abundant renewable energy resources.
For Immediate Release: October 24, 2023 SACRAMENTO — New data show California is surging forward with the buildout of battery energy storage systems with more than 6,600 megawatts (MW) online, enough electricity to power 6.6 million homes for up to four hours.
Energy storage is central to the state’s roadmap to 2045 clean energy goals, as put into action by the governor. Installed battery storage capacity in California has grown from just 500MW in 2018 to more than 13,300MW at the latest count.
When that milestone was passed, with cumulative installs at 10,379MW, batteries became the biggest single contributor of power to the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) grid for a short time on the evening of 16 April 2024. California Governor Gavin Newsom said that the state’s “energy storage revolution is here.”
Two states with rapidly growing wind and solar generating fleets account for the bulk of the capacity additions. California has the most installed battery storage capacity of any state, with 7.3 GW, followed by Texas with 3.2 GW.
The Public Utilities Code defines an energy storage system as a commercially available technology that absorbs energy, storing it for a specified period, and then dispatches the energy.
