With the anticipated resurgence of photovoltaic (PV) installations in 2023 and the boost provided by increased Investment Tax Credit (ITC) subsidies, the demand for energy storage in the United States
Energy storage systems, mostly large batteries, are important because they help store solar and wind power for use when the sun isn’t shining or the wind isn’t blowing. In 2025, over 31 GW of new storage capacity is expected to be built. California and Texas are the leaders in battery storage.
In 2023, EIA reports that the U.S. installed 67,700 battery energy storage systems, of which 66,700 were residential, 650 were C&I, and 122 were utility-scale. LBNL conducted a survey of 123 utility-scale wind and solar project developers.
The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) has also accelerated the development of energy storage by introducing investment tax credits (ITCs) for stand-alone storage. Prior to the IRA, batteries qualified for federal tax credits only if they were co-located with solar. Wind.
Our operations and maintenance (O&M) analysis breaks costs into various categories and provides total annualized O&M costs. The MSP results for PV systems (in units of 2022 real USD/kWdc/yr) are $28.78 (residential), $39.83 (community solar), and $16.12 (utility-scale).
Market prices can include items such as smaller-market-share PV systems (e.g., those with premium efficiency panels), atypical system configurations due to site irregularities (e.g., additional land grading) or customer preferences (e.g., pest traps), and specific project requirements (e.g., unionized labor).
The credits for PV system owners are based either on the upfront cost of the system (Section 48/48E Investment Tax Credit or ITC) or the electricity generated by the system (Section 45(d)/45Y Production Tax Credit or PTC).
