The Energy Storage Revolution

Energy storage is growing segment of America’s energy makeup and a critical aspect of SEIA’s footprint; storage is especially well-suited to pair with solar: the fastest and most cost-effective energy generation technology on the market. Together, solar and storage are boosting energy reliability for millions of Americans and keeping energy costs down as power demand spikes. SEIA’s energy storage experts—Joan White and Emily Burlinghaus—join SEIA’s Good Energy podcast to talk more about the literal power energy storage brings to Americans and to discuss several exciting announcements SEIA is making in the energy storage space.Episode #38 - The Energy Storage RevolutionGood Energy is hosted by Stephanie Bosh, Colin Silver, and the ⁠Solar Energy Industries Association⁠.
