Abstract

Energy storage is poised for explosive growth as a result of technological innovation, expanded state mandates and incentive programs, and new participation models developed under Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Order 841. If storage is done right – charged using clean power, and discharged when grid needs are high and dirtier power can be displaced – it can be a key part of a low-cost, clean grid. But a growing body of literature suggests that storage could actually increase greenhouse gas (GHG) if not managed and incentivized properly.
