The 20-MW facility installed and operated by the New York Power Authority connects into the state's electric grid, and is meant to relieve transmission congestion and pave the way for the utility industry and the private sector to better understand how to integrate more clean energy into the power system, especially during times of peak demand.
Adding bulk energy storage to New York's grid will lower costs, optimize the generation and transmission of power, enhance energy grid infrastructure, and ensure the reliability and resilience of the State's electricity system.
“Today's action is another example of New York's ongoing commitment to strengthening our grid, ensuring the state continues to have a more affordable and reliable electricity system now and well into the future,” Governor Hochul said.
New York will deploy 6 GW of energy storage by 2030 under a framework approved Thursday by the New York Public Service Commission, the office of Gov. Kathy Hochul, D, said in a press announcement.
New York Secretary of State Walter Mosley said, “In looking ahead for the state's future, bulk energy storage can provide the ability to store excess electricity during times of lower usage or high renewable production and return that electricity to the grid during peak times when it's needed most.
New York needs 12 GW of short-duration storage by 2040 and 17 GW by 2050 to “decarbonize the grid in a cost-effective and reliable way,” the road map said. Additionally, the road map noted New York will need more than 4 GW of 8-hour storage by 2035 and 6.8 GW by 2050.
New York has awarded about $200 million to support about 396 MW of operational energy storage assets and has more than 581 MW of additional storage “under contract with the State and moving towards commercial operation” as of April 1, the governor's office announcement said.
