Distributed energy storage (distribution-connected and customer-sited) is uniquely positioned to mitigate negative consequences of PSPS outages and all other upstream grid failures.
The CPUC Energy Storage Procurement Study aims to improve data practices by addressing the lack of comprehensive and quality-controlled actual project characteristics and operational data across all resources and grid domains.
You can find the California Public Utilities Commission Energy Storage Procurement Study at The study was prepared by Lumen Energy Strategy, LLC for the California Public Utilities Commission and was released on May 31, 2023.
The PU’s Energy Storage Procurement Framework provides crucial motivation to the development of both demand and supply in this marketplace. Since the time of Assembly Bill 2514 and through 2021 California built a rich ecosystem for energy storage research and development, commercialization, and project deployment.
Yes, distribution-connected energy storage projects must have an interconnection agreement with the utility. These projects, operating like a generator, must interconnect under the Wholesale Distribution Access Tariff (WDAT), which is regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC).
Transmission- and distribution-connected energy storage participated in energy, ancillary services, and capacity markets. By the end of 2021, grid-scale installations grew to 2,400 MW/9,100 MWh, representing 44% of all installed capacity in the country.
