Grid-scale storage deployments alone are expected to reach 13.3 GW in 2025. Across all segments, Wood Mackenzie expects 15 GW of storage deployments, growing another 25% over the record year of 2024. “Energy storage has entered a new phase of growth with its first year of double-digit deployment.
HOUSTON/WASHINGTON, D.C., March 19, 2025 — The U.S. energy storage market set a new record in 2024 with 12.3 gigawatts (GW) of installations across all segments, according to the latest U.S. Energy Storage Monitor report released today by the American Clean Power Association (ACP) and Wood Mackenzie.
“Energy storage has entered a new phase of growth with its first year of double-digit deployment. We are increasingly seeing the industry’s growth diversified across geographic regions, with 30% of storage capacity additions in Q4 2024 represented by New Mexico, Oregon, and Arizona,” said Kelsey Hallahan, ACP Sr. Director of Market Intelligence.
Residential energy storage had a boom year for growth, deploying 1.25 GW in 2024, a 57% leap above 2023 totals. Residential battery installers had a record quarter in Q4 2024, rising 6% quarter-over-quarter by deploying 380 MW. Community, commercial and industrial storage also grew year-over-year, rising 22% to 145 MW deployed.
Storage deployment in the United States grew across all segments and is forecast to grow another 25% in 2025, according to Wood Mackenzie. Across all segments, including residential, commercial and industrial, and utility-scale, energy storage had year-over-year deployment growth in 2024.
145 MW of community-scale, commercial and industrial (CCI) storage was installed in 2024, a 22% increase over the previous year. California, Massachusetts, and New York accounted for 88% of installed CCI capacity. Forecasted installations for 2025 have increased 7% over last quarter’s forecast.
