美国电池贮存能力猛增71%, 由清洁能源倡导者推动, U.S. battery storage capacity surges 71%, driven by clean energy advocates seeking alternatives to polluting "peaker" plants.

美国的大型电池项目正在猛增,24千兆瓦小时的储存现已投入使用,比2023年增加了71%。 Large-scale battery projects in the U.S. are surging, with 24 gigawatt-hours of storage now operational, up 71% from 2023. 这种增长受到清洁能源倡导者的推动,他们认为电池是释放有害污染物的“喇叭”工厂的更清洁的替代品。 This growth is spurred by clean energy advocates who see batteries as a cleaner alternative to "peaker" plants, which release harmful pollutants. 电池可以储存过剩的清洁能源,将其使用范围扩大到白天以外的时间,并有助于满足意外的能源需求。 Batteries can store excess clean energy, extending its use beyond daylight hours, and help meet unexpected energy demands. 尽管86%的电池储存只集中在四个州,但专家预测,特别是在加利福尼亚州和得克萨斯州,采用的情况会更加普遍。 While 86% of battery storage is concentrated in just four states, experts predict more widespread adoption, especially in California and Texas.
