Driven largely by installations over the past three years, the electric
power industry has installed about 700 MW of utility-scale batteries on
the U.S. electric grid, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration
(EIA). As of October 2017, these batteries made up about 0.06% of U.S.
utility-scale generating capacity. The agency notes another 22 MW of
batteries were planned for the last two months of 2017, with 69 MW more
planned for 2018.
