A new report argues that California is demonstrating how widespread home batteries can transform the electric grid. By charging when solar power is abundant and discharging during evening peak demand, residential batteries reduce strain on the grid and cut reliance on fossil-fuel plants. The piece frames this as a model other states could follow as rooftop solar and battery storage adoption grows.
Why now: Growing interest in home energy storage as California scales up solar and grid-flexibility solutions
