Energy Storage Can Help California Avoid Major Blackouts
The power outages impacting hundreds of thousands of Californians serve as a reminder of how we need to modernize the grid and make it more resilient.

Energy storage is an essential component of a secure, resilient, low-carbon and cost-effective electricity future, and California is at the epicenter of this change. Not only does storage support the deployment of renewables and create jobs, it can also provide key options for flexibility and a smarter way to make households and businesses resilient to grid disruptions.
