This article examines emerging trends in BESS applications, including advances in battery technologies, the development of hybrid energy storage systems (HESSes), and the introduction of AI-based solutions for optimization. With demand for energy storage soaring, what's next for batteries—and how can businesses, policymakers, and investors. . We expect 63 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale electric-generating capacity to be added to the U. power grid in 2025 in our latest Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory report. This amount represents an almost 30% increase from 2024 when 48. By storing energy from both renewable sources, such as solar and wind, and the conventional power grid, BESSes balance supply and demand, stabilizing power. . Battery storage in the power sector was the fastest growing energy technology in 2023 that was commercially available, with deployment more than doubling year-on-year.
