When properly installed, battery storage has proven to be a safe technology, and it is becoming safer every year as more protective regulations and best practices are established. However, many communities have raised concerns about battery storage safety, especially regarding lithium-ion batteries, which currently dominate the battery storage technology market. To build battery storage safety…

Clean Energy Group submitted comments to the New Jersey Board of Public Utilities in response to a Request for Information (RFI) regarding the development of the state’s Virtual Power Plant (VPP) program and Phase 2 of the Grid-Sourced Energy Storage Program (GSESP).
A medida que Massachusetts avanza en la electrificación del sector del transporte y de los edificios, una estrategia clave para alcanzar los objetivos de descarbonización del estado, se prevé que la demanda pico de electricidad aumentará sustancialmente. Con el incremento de la demanda de electricidad, es probable que también aumente el costo de esta, poniendo…
Massachusetts has some of the best solar and energy storage programs in the country, but these programs lack meaningful equity provisions, and clean energy adoption rates in environmental justice communities are low. Solar and storage can provide many benefits that would be especially valuable to environmental justice communities, such as lowering energy costs, reducing local…
To meet its emissions reduction targets and decarbonization goals, Massachusetts – like many states – is working towards the electrification of its building and transportation sectors. While this will help reduce air pollution, it will also increase the region’s electric demand, which could lead to a new round of investment in fossil fuel generation. This…
Battery energy storage systems can be a cost-effective tool for utilities to meet peak demand and provide flexibility to the power grid. When properly installed, battery storage has proven to be a safe technology, and it is becoming safer every year as more protective regulations and best practices are established. However, many communities have raised…
Battery energy storage systems can serve as a clean and reliable source of backup power for homes and businesses. When properly installed, battery storage has proven to be a safe technology, and it is becoming safer every year as more protective regulations and best practices are established. However, many communities have raised concerns about battery storage…
This report compares the costs and benefits of one utility-scale, front-of-the-meter (FTM) battery system versus five commercial-scale, behind-the-meter (BTM) batteries of the same aggregate cost in Massachusetts. The report, commissioned by Clean Energy Group for the Cape and Vineyard Electric Cooperative (CVEC), provides useful information to help CVEC decide between two possible ownership models for…
Comments on the Rhode Island Energy Draft System Reliability Procurement Plan
Clean Energy Group submitted comments to the Rhode Island Public Utilities Commission on the need to incorporate equity provisions into the state’s ConnectedSolutions energy storage incentive program, in order to expand access for low- and moderate-income households. The comments highlight program examples from other states.
