The New York Independent System Operator (NYISO) earlier this month issued its annual Power Trends report, analysis into the state of play on the power grid and wholesale markets, which it is responsible for. . Energy storage has a pivotal role in delivering reliable and affordable power to New Yorkers as we increasingly switch to renewable energy sources and electrify our buildings and transportation systems. Integrating storage in the electric grid, especially in areas with high energy demand, will. . Developers have built 300% more distributed battery energy storage systems (BESS) across New York than utility-scale projects. These projects were prioritized because the Value of Distributed Energy Resources (VDER) program offered bankable revenue. However, in 2024, that pathway weakened as. . Not only has the state's grid operator acknowledged the collective power of DERs aggregated into virtual power plants (VPPs), but it has also launched the country's first program to integrate aggregations of DERs into wholesale markets in sync with an effort to create New York's grid of the future.
