What is a storage policy?
All of the states with a storage policy in place have a renewable portfolio standard or a nonbinding renewable energy goal. Regulatory changes can broaden competitive access to storage such as by updating resource planning requirements or permitting storage through rate proceedings.
How will the energy storage mandate impact China?
S&P Global estimates that the storage mandate has driven between 50 and 75% of domestic demand. With China accounting for around 56% of the global energy storage demand in , the impact of such a policy change will be massive.
What are the different types of energy storage policy?
Approximately 16 states have adopted some form of energy storage policy, which broadly fall into the following categories: procurement targets, regulatory adaption, demonstration programs, financial incentives, and consumer protections. Below we give an overview of each of these energy storage policy categories.
What are the benefits of solar power versus wind power?
However, such systems mitigate the intermittency issues inherent to individual renewable sources, enhancing the overall reliability and stability of energy generation. Solar power exhibits peak output during daylight hours, while wind power can be harnessed even during periods of reduced solar availability .
Is the energy storage mandate a big change?
This is a big change towards rationalization of renewables but hidden within that is a removal of the energy storage mandate,” George Hilton, research and analysis manager at S&P Global, tells ESS News. S&P Global estimates that the storage mandate has driven between 50 and 75% of domestic demand.
Should solar and wind energy systems be integrated?
Despite the individual merits of solar and wind energy systems, their intermittent nature and geographical limitations have spurred interest in hybrid solutions that maximize efficiency and reliability through integrated systems.
