Federal lawmakers on Tuesday introduced legislation that would expand the investment tax credit (ITC) to apply to standalone energy storage systems, which advocates say would further spur storage deployments and bring new technologies closer to being economic.
The Energy Storage Tax Incentive and Deployment Act would extend to both residential battery systems, as well as commercial and utility-scale energy storage projects, whether they are batteries, pumped hydropower, hydrogen, or another kind of storage technology.
The global appetite for electric vehicles is growing, but questions remain about the viability of the EV battery supply chain. Demand might increase so quickly in the near term that the supply chain could have difficulties keeping up.
Even small systems like those that kept the lights on for some Texas homeowners could play a role in protecting the bigger electricity system, experts say. Small-scale solar energy projects, coupled with batteries that can store the power collected on your roof, can keep a household’s lights on even when the rest of the grid goes down. But they are also starting to play a valuable role in supporting that bigger grid, if networked together and used correctly into a sort of “virtual power plant.”
Denmark, the nation that built the world’s first offshore wind farm, has agreed to an ambitious plan for another global first – an energy island in the North Sea which could eventually be capable of supplying energy to a history-making 10 million homes. The move will create a critical boost to the world’s offshore wind capacity. The first “hub and spoke” energy scheme will involve building an island 80 kilometres off the Danish coastline to act as the transmission centre for hundreds of wind turbines surrounding it. At $34 billion, it’s the largest construction project in Danish history.
The bipartisan legislation would provide a federal investment tax credit for energy storage without the need for solar. Federal lawmakers have introduced the Energy Storage Tax Incentive and Deployment Act. The bipartisan legislation would create a standalone investment tax credit (ITC) for energy storage technologies for utilities, businesses, and homes. Jason Burwen, interim CEO of ESA, said the bill would put storage “on the same playing field as other clean energy technologies.”
