With roughly 330 GW of data center projects in the U.S. pipeline and interconnection queues stretching for years, power access has become the binding constraint on deployment. This report examines where energy storage fits.
INSIDE THE REPORT
- U.S. load growth through 2035 by ISO and the interconnection congestion behind the speed-to-power crunch
- How different BESS configurations supports data center power needs, from voltage ride-through and back-up power to load ramping control
- Front-of-the-meter, behind-the-meter, and islanded power configurations, reference projects, and value drivers
- How battery storage fits within the evolving policy landscape: FERC large load reforms, state-level policy implications, and ERCOT, PJM, CAISO, MISO, and SPP ISO/RTO deep dives
