Fact Sheet: Outlook for Energy Storage in PJM

PJM needs to deploy 16 GW of energy storage to maintain grid reliability through 2032. A new report by The Brattle Group, commissioned by the U.S. Energy Storage Coalition, demonstrates the need to deploy energy storage at scale to make sure the grid has enough power to reliably meet demand in the Pennsylvania-New Jersey-Maryland (PJM) Interconnection territory, which spans large swaths of the Midwest and the Mid-Atlantic.

Outlook for Energy Storage in PJM

A new report from the U.S. Energy Storage Coalition, warns that PJM must deploy at least 16 GW of energy storage–enough to power 12 million homes–by 2032 and 23 GW by 2040 to ensure system reliability. Without this buildout, the region, which serves 65 million customers from Chicago to New Jersey, risks severe power shortages, forced load shedding of up to 15 GW during extreme weather, and sharp increases in electricity costs.
