Current installed capacity of energy storage on the power generation side
In 2024, the United States had nearly 1. 3 terawatts (TW) of generation capacity, as well as nearly 29,000 MW of energy storage, an 11,000 MW increase in energy storage in the past year. The largest fuel source for this capacity is natural gas (42. . In the United States, cumulative utility-scale battery storage capacity exceeded 26 gigawatts (GW) in 2024, according to our January 2025 Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory. Despite actions in Washington targeting clean energy, energy storage installations grew 30% from the previous. . Electrical Energy Storage (EES) systems store electricity and convert it back to electrical energy when needed. The first battery, Volta's cell, was developed in 1800. California, Massachusetts and New York accounted for most of that.
