4 FAQs about Solar Island Energy Storage

What are the benefits of solar and energy storage?

Bulk storage: These grid-connected storage projects enable increased integration of renewable energy sources while ensuring a resilient and reliable power supply when and where it's needed most. Learn about the benefits of pairing solar and energy storage and incentives available for installing a system at your home.

Why is energy storage important?

Energy storage is essential for creating a cleaner, more efficient, and resilient electric grid. Additionally, these projects will provide meaningful benefits to Disadvantaged Communities and Low-to-Moderate Income New Yorkers. Energy storage is essential to a resilient grid and clean energy system.

How do energy storage systems work?

Energy storage systems capture and hold energy for later use by shifting when and how electricity supply and demand are balanced. They're charged using electricity from the power grid during periods of low demand or extra capacity.

When will energy storage projects be regulated?

The storage industry anticipates this to be passed into law in 2022, and that it will apply to projects that achieved commercial operation after December 31, 2020, reducing the risks and uncertainty in energy storage project economics.
