Battery Projects

Utility-scale solar and batteries made up most new U.S. power plant builds in early 2026, and that shifts how operators should buy capacity

EIA’s January–June build list shows solar and storage dominating new projects. For big loads, the procurement question is shifting from megawatts to deliverabil

H1 2026 U.S. grid additions show solar plus batteries has become the default project, and gas is the long-lead counterweight

EIA data shows 368 new utility-scale plants in H1 2026, led by 207 solar and 95 batteries. For operators, the bottleneck is shifting to interconnection, duratio

First-half 2026 grid additions show storage is being procured like capacity, not energy

EIA’s midyear plant list shows solar and batteries dominating new projects, pushing operators to rewrite specs around deliverable MWh and interconnection rights

Utility-scale solar and batteries dominated the first half of 2026 interconnection queue reality, not the gas boom headlines

EIA’s January to June data shows 207 new utility-scale solar projects and 95 battery projects, a planning signal for grid operators and large-load buyers writin

Europe's summer power crunch is accelerating battery and solar investment across the continent

Heat waves, nuclear outages, and drought are pushing European power prices to multi-year highs and fast-tracking grid storage projects from Italy to Slovenia.
