Today MAREC Action Executive Director Evan Vaughan is offering public testimony on HB 2277, which would codify Governor Shapiro’s Pennsylvania Reliable Energy Sustainability Standard (PRESS). MAREC Action views HB2277 as a strong piece of legislation - it represents the single largest new market opportunity for energy investment currently under consideration by any state legislature in PJM. Through HB2277, Pennsylvania has an opportunity to diversify its electricity mix with clean and reliable energy storage projects paired with wind or solar. MAREC Action is strongly supportive of the inclusion of energy storage in Tier 2 under HB2277. One note of concern about the legislation, however, is the strict limitations placed on regional market participants. The legislation as introduced prohibits any regionally sited clean energy projects larger than 150 MW from being able to participate in the Pennsylvania clean energy market. Leveraging the regional market for a portion of Pennsylvania’s electricity supply results in greater competition and the best outcomes for consumers. MAREC Action looks forward to continuing its work with the Pennsylvania General Assembly as the legislation moves forward. For more information check out the link below: https://lnkd.in/e5_xNBuu

Nations pursuing an energy transition are expediting their efforts to study and invest in long duration BESS(Battery Energy Storage Systems) as a flexibility resource to tap into its potential to promote grid stabilization and respond to the issue of renewable energy curtailment. ⚡ Wood Mackenzie, in its ‘Long-duration energy storage report 2022’, revealed that LDES (Long Duration Energy Storage) projects representing USD 30 billion are now either under construction or in operation, and that such projects attracted more than USD 58 billion in global commitments since 2019. 🤗 In fact, New York set a target to install 3,000MW-capacity BESS in the state by 2030 in line with the Climate Leadership and Community Protection Act which passed into law in 2019. To attain this goal, New York announced an initiative to raise USD 6 billion in funding over the next ten years for long-duration BESS demonstration project undertakings. The pursuit of long-duration BESS systems and investments is gaining meaningful traction here in Korea as well. 😃 Korea’s 10th Electric Power Supply Basic Plan specified the introduction of a 22.6GW long-duration BESS by 2036 as a means to mitigate renewable energy curtailment and stabilize the power grid system. Jeju Island was chosen as the first to open the BESS contract market, as it houses a large amount of renewable energy. The opening of the BESS contract market in Jeju marks the first step towards revitalizing long-duration BESS! Along with substantial efforts being made to facilitate long-duration BESS in Korea, we wish to do our part in driving the nation’s energy transition and diversification. As an BESS O&M service provider, we will also ensure we keep current with the shifting energy market and institutions. 🫡 Clean Energy for Everyone Everywhere at Every Moment. 🌱 #Gridwiz #그리드위즈 #HealtheEarth #CleanEnergy #CleanTech #EnergyTech #DR #BESS #EMoblity

Regulators in the state have launched a Request for Information (RFI) for a draft incentive plan aimed at boosting energy storage deployment. As a global marketing manager in the energy industry, this development aligns with our focus on Li-Ion batteries, energy storage systems, and industrial gases. Let's take a closer look at what's happening: New Jersey, a pioneer in energy storage targets since 2018, is working towards a goal of 2,000MW of storage by 2030, as part of its commitment to decarbonization and achieving 100% clean energy by 2050. However, progress has been slower than anticipated, with only 497MW of storage as of last year. The state is now seeking input on the proposed New Jersey Energy Storage Incentive Program (NJ SIP), which aims to accelerate energy storage adoption. The NJ SIP program includes provisions for both front-of-the-meter (Grid Supply) and behind-the-meter (Distributed/Customer Level) storage, with eligibility limited to facilities connected to New Jersey electric distribution companies' networks. Incentives include a 30% fixed annual payment component and pay-for-performance, allowing private investors to own and operate energy storage resources. This initiative opens up opportunities for collaboration between explosion protection suppliers and energy storage developers, as safety is a critical consideration in the deployment of large-scale battery systems. As we engage in discussions about city governments and grid-scale energy storage, let's consider the following questions: 1. With the shift towards cleaner energy sources, how can energy storage incentives like NJ SIP contribute to the growth of Li-Ion batteries and other technologies in the energy industry? 2. How can city governments actively promote the integration of explosion protection measures in energy storage projects, aligning with NFPA 855 and 68 standards? 3. What specific challenges and solutions do OEMs face when it comes to explosion protection in energy storage systems, and how can suppliers address these needs effectively? #osecoelfab #explosionprotection #NFPA855 #NFPA68 #deflagrationventing

As industry leaders gathered at a recent conference in Houston, a resounding message emerged: → the U.S. government must take decisive action to streamline permitting for renewable energy projects. From the development of power transmission infrastructure to grid connectivity, the current regulatory landscape is hindering the growth of clean energy at a time when we need it most. According to the American Clean Power Association, it can take up to four years for a new electricity generator to navigate the labyrinth of interconnection rules and connect to the grid. That's 4 years of lost potential, four years of delayed progress towards a cleaner, more sustainable future. But the impact goes beyond inconvenience. As NRG Energy interim CEO Larry Coben pointed out, states with fewer regulatory hurdles are poised to become the big winners in attracting renewable investment and growth. The AES Corporation CEO Andrés Gluski echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that streamlined permitting is key to unlocking the full potential of clean energy. The urgency of this issue cannot be overstated. With renewable energy deployment projected to grow by up to 17% this year, representing a quarter of electricity generation, we cannot afford to let bureaucratic red tape stand in the way of progress. *** How can your organization contribute to breaking down the barriers to clean energy growth?
