The market for solar-plus-storage in the US has grown dramatically in recent years, with more than 1GW already.
Additionally, there is more than 100GW in connection queues, explained Will Gorman, a researcher at the Electricity Markets and Policy Department at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in a panel discussion at the Energy Storage Summit USA, hosted by our publisher Solar Media.
