Section 48 had previously allowed energy storage technology to qualify for the investment tax credit if it was performing specific functions within a renewable energy facility. However, it was not until 2022 that the credit was broadly applied to standalone energy storage facilities —technology crucial for grid reliability and resilience.
The investment tax credit (ITC) for standalone energy storage is an undoubted game changer for the US industry, but it isn''t easy or cheap to capture its benefits. The ITC came into effect at the beginning of this year, offering upwards of a 24% reduction in the capital cost of investing in eligible energy storage project equipment.
