For solar-plus-storage—the pairing of solar photovoltaic (PV) and energy storage technologies—NLR researchers study and quantify the economic and grid impacts of distributed and utility-scale systems. Much of NLR's current energy storage research is informing solar-plus-storage analysis. Energy. . To overcome this challenge, grid-scale energy storage systems are being connected to the power grid to store excess electricity at times when it's plentiful and then release it when the grid is under periods of especially high demand. Deployments of these systems have increased dramatically over. . Recent data shows that a total of 49. 5GWh of grid-scale BESS came online in the first nine months of the year, up 36% compared to the same period in 2024 (in gigawatt-hours).
