Remember when everyone thought renewable energy was just a passing fad? The GTM Research and Energy Storage Association 2017 report delivered a reality check louder than a Tesla coil demonstration. That year, U.S. energy storage capacity surged by 41.8 megawatts – a 46% jump driven primarily by a single game-changing project in Texas. Let’s unpack why this partnership’s findings still resonate in today’s battery-powered landscape.

Ever wondered what happens when the wind stops blowing or the sun takes a coffee break behind clouds? Welcome to renewable energy's dirty little secret - the storage problem. While lithium-ion batteries hog the spotlight, there's an underground contender literally breathing new life into energy storage. Let's dive into compressed air energy storage (CAES), the technology that's been hiding in plain sight since 1978 but might just become renewables' best friend.

Let’s face it – when most folks think about Canadian energy, they picture oil sands or hydro dams. But here’s the kicker: Energy Storage Association Canada members are quietly building the backbone of our clean energy transition. From the rocky shores of Newfoundland to BC’s mountain ranges, energy storage systems are popping up like hockey rinks in January.
