Customer ServiceGrid scale battery storage refers to batteries which store energy to be distributed at grid level. Let’s quickly cover a few other key details. There is no definition of what constitutes ‘grid scale’ when it comes to capacity. Each grid scale battery storage facility is usually measured in megawatts (MW). Take the UK as an example.
Battery storage at grid scale is mainly the concern of government, energy providers, grid operators, and others. So, short answer: not a lot. However, when it comes to energy storage, there are things you can do as a consumer. You can: Alongside storage at grid level, both options will help reduce strain on the grid as we transition to renewables.
The current market for grid-scale battery storage in the United States and globally is dominated by lithium-ion chemistries (Figure 1).
Grid-scale battery storage in particular needs to grow significantly. In the Net Zero Scenario, installed grid-scale battery storage capacity expands 35-fold between 2022 and 2030 to nearly 970 GW. Around 170 GW of capacity is added in 2030 alone, up from 11 GW in 2022.
