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.
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 did the energy storage rulemaking entail?
This rulemaking identified energy storage end uses and barriers to deployment, considered a variety of possible policies to encourage the cost-effective deployment of energy storage systems, including refinement of existing procurement methods to properly value energy storage systems. This rulemaking resulted in two CPUC Decisions, which are:
Does New York have a bulk energy storage program?
The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority filed with the New York Public Service Commission a proposed bulk energy storage program implementation plan designed to support the state’s build-out of storage deployments to meet the stated goal and to reduce projected costs by nearly $2 billion.
