In 2025, energy storage shifted from a supporting role to a core pillar of power system reliability. As renewable penetration increased, flexibility—not just generation—became the decisive constraint on further decarbonization. Long-duration energy storage moved. . We expect 63 gigawatts (GW) of new utility-scale electric-generating capacity to be added to the U.S. power grid in 2025 in our latest Preliminary Monthly Electric Generator Inventory report. This amount represents an almost 30% increase from 2024 when 48.6 GW of capacity was installed, the largest. . Callout Box: Why Grid Intelligence Became as Important as Generation Capacity By 2025, adding renewable megawatts without intelligent grid coordination increasingly led to congestion, curtailment, and reliability risks. In power systems where renewables exceed 30–40% of generation, value shifts. . Solar and wind are now expanding fast enough to meet all new electricity demand, a milestone reached in the first three quarters of 2025. Ember's analysis published in November shows that these technologies are no longer just catching up; they are outpacing demand growth itself. Together, solar and.
