An energy storage system (ESS) for electricity generation uses electricity (or some other energy source, such as solar-thermal energy) to charge an energy storage system or device, which is discharged to supply (generate) electricity when needed at desired levels and quality. ESSs provide a variety of services to support electric power grids.
Regarding ESS types, commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage systems are entering a phase of swift development, surpassing the incremental growth of utility-scale installations and other ESS types by a significant margin.
As of the end of 2022, the total nameplate power capacity of operational utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESSs) in the United States was 8,842 MW and the total energy capacity was 11,105 MWh. Most of the BESS power capacity that was operational in 2022 was installed after 2014, and about 4,807 MW was installed in 2022 alone.
In 2022, the United States had four operational flywheel energy storage systems, with a combined total nameplate power capacity of 47 MW and 17 MWh of energy capacity. Two of the systems, one in New York and one in Pennsylvania, each have 20 MW nameplate power capacity and 5 MWh of energy capacity.
