Nationwide, the company has over 5.3 GW of solar and energy storage projects across 17 states representing more than $10 billion in capital investment. The company has a 9 GW development portfolio.

What is energy storage?

Energy storage encompasses an array of technologies that enable energy produced at one time, such as during daylight or windy hours, to be stored for later use. LPO can finance commercially ready projects across storage technologies, including flywheels, mechanical technologies, electrochemical technologies, thermal storage, and chemical storage.

How will energy storage help a net-zero economy by 2050?

Accelerated by DOE initiatives, multiple tax credits under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and Inflation Reduction Act, and decarbonization goals across the public and private sectors, energy storage will play a key role in the shift to a net-zero economy by 2050.

Will America supply 100% of energy storage projects with American-made batteries?

The commitment “represents a clear pathway to supplying 100% of U.S. energy storage projects with American-made batteries by 2030,” but depends on a “streamlined permitting environment” and predictable tax and trade policy, ACP said.

How many energy storage supply chain companies are in development?

U.S. energy storage supply chain companies now have 25 factories in development, 11 of which are under construction or operational, according to the ACP fact sheet.

Why is energy storage important?

Energy storage serves important grid functions, including time-shifting energy across hours, days, weeks, or months; regulating grid frequency; and ensuring flexibility to balance supply and demand.
