What is the EPRI battery energy storage roadmap?

Gaps were sorted by project set to facilitate focused, long-term research planning that incorporates projects and activities to close the gaps. This EPRI Battery Energy Storage Roadmap contains four Future State Pillars, each representing an aspect of EPRI’s mission to advance safe, reliable, affordable, and clean energy.

What is the battery energy storage roadmap?

This Battery Energy Storage Roadmap revises the gaps to reflect evolving technological, regulatory, market, and societal considerations that introduce new or expanded challenges that must be addressed to accelerate deployment of safe, reliable, affordable, and clean energy storage to meet capacity targets by 2030.

Will energy storage capacity double by 2030?

United States forecasts that consider state goals, utility integrated resource plans (IRPs), and industry expectations estimate energy storage capacity will more than double by 2030, much of which is expected to be contributed to BESS deployments.

Why is energy storage important?

Energy storage is integral for realizing a clean energy future in which a decarbonized electric system is reliable and resilient. Global installed energy storage capacity is expected to grow more than 650% by 2030 to enable more renewable energy resources and support grid modernization.

What is EPRI's energy storage roadmap?

EPRI’s the original Energy Storage Roadmap and current Battery Energy Storage Roadmap were developed using the process shown below: Originally published in 2020, EPRI’s Energy Storage Roadmap envisioned a path to 2025 in which energy storage enhances safe, reliable, affordable, and environmentally responsible electric power.

What is the energy storage & distributed generation roadmap?

EPRI’s Energy Storage and Distributed Generation Program uses this Roadmap as a planning guide for strategizing the direction and alignment of its BESS collaborations and applied research priorities to foster the needs of its Members and EPRI’s mission of “advancing safe, reliable, affordable, and clean energy for society.”
