Energy Storage
PROVIDING ENERGY ON DEMAND
Texas is a US leader in renewable energy storage capacity alongside Nevada and California. Energy storage is now a vital part of our electrical infrastructure. The ability to store energy and release it when needed is essential to delivering a secure, reliable, modern electricity system. Texans see the value in storing renewable energy to reduce or avoid price spikes and supply shortfalls.
Many of the energy storage systems operating across the country today use lithium-ion (Li-ion) technology. Li-ion batteries are commonly used in a wide range of consumer devices such as laptop computers, cellphones, toys, and handheld power tools, as well as in electric vehicles. Energy storage has the potential to make a meaningful contribution to a low-carbon electrical grid.
ENERGY STORAGE delivers a more reliable - and sustainable - grid
In addition to electricity, grid operators need energy assets that can provide services such as frequency regulation and voltage support, which are essential in maintaining a safe and reliable electrical system. Because energy storage can release power on demand, adding it in strategic locations makes the grid stronger and more resilient, helping to prevent blackouts and other outages.

MAXIMIZING THE SUPPLY OF CLEAN, AFFORDABLE, RENEWABLE ENERGY WITH Energy storage
Without a way to store power, electricity must be used the instant it’s generated . Our country’s electrical grids are carefully managed by grid operators that constantly ensure the supply of electricity precisely meets demand. Under normal circumstances, this is accomplished by the grid operator telling individual power plants to increase or decrease their production of electricity, sometimes on a minute-by-minute basis. Energy storage offers grid operators on-demand power that can respond almost instantaneously when needed. In addition, energy storage makes it possible to save extra power generated during the day and release it when demand increases in the evening hours, helping to reduce or avoid price spikes and supply shortfalls.
