Landmark US ruling for Stationary Storage
In a landmark decision a federal appeals court in the US has upheld the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) Order 841, clearing the way for transmission grid operators across the country to open their markets to energy storage, including aggregated batteries connected at the distribution grid or behind customers’ meters. This basically means that energy storage at the distribution level can access wholesale markets, allowing homes and businesses to contribute resiliency for the grid. This is a huge step forward for the US ESS market and takes a lot of the red tape out of the way.
