Solar + Storage
Maximize your clean energy with battery backup and storage. Get the most out of your system when you pair your solar panels with energy storage by storing the electricity your panels
Simply put, a solar-plus-storage system is a battery system that is charged by a connected solar system, such as a photovoltaic (PV) one. In an effort to track this trend, researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) created a first-of-its-kind benchmark of U.S. utility-scale solar-plus-storage systems.
Adding 19 GW of solar and 6.2 GW of storage since 2019 helped keep the lights on – an 800% increase in solar and 5,500% increase in battery storage over that period. Solar-plus-storage is solving demand growth by providing reliable power when the grid needs it most – during peak hours.
Energy Innovation analysis shows clean energy can come online fast enough to meet rising demand without needing gas to fill the gap, and solar-plus-storage has stepped up.
Battery manufacturing capacity is growing apace – IRA provisions have spurred a “battery belt” stretching from the Upper Midwest to the Southeast, and the U.S. could add more than 80 GW of new storage manufacturing capacity by 2028. Solar-plus-storage's biggest payoff may be keeping customer costs stable.
