Prices for utility-scale, lithium-ion batteries, have dropped,
. . . 80% since 2009.
Batteries have long been viewed as a game changer for the power grid,
. . . a technology that would make it easier to:
. . . . . . manage supply, and demand,
. . . . . . smooth out price spikes in wholesale markets,
. . . . . . lessen the need for expensive transmission projects, and
. . . . . . accelerate the growth of wind, solar, and other renewable energy sources. Battery technology,
. . . has continued to improve and,
. . . most importantly, get cheaper.
A Texas commission is making the first set of rules,
. . . for utilities that want to use batteries,
. . . to store, and deliver power to the grid,
. . . a move that could potentially trigger changes to how electricity is:
. . . . . . produced,
. . . . . . delivered, and
. . . . . . regulated.
