The backlog of new power generation and energy storage seeking transmission connections across the U. grew again in 2023, with nearly 2,600 gigawatts (GW) of generation and storage capacity now actively seeking grid interconnection, according to new research from Lawrence Berkeley National. . Grid-scale storage refers to technologies connected to the power grid that can store energy and then supply it back to the grid at a more advantageous time – for example, at night, when no solar power is available, or during a weather event that disrupts electricity generation. Initiatives range from multilateral platforms and investment alliances to bilateral collaborations aimed at. .
