Houston/WASHINGTON, D.C., September 26, 2025 — The U.S. energy storage market set a record for quarterly growth in Q2 2025, with 5.6 gigawatts (GW) of installations, according to the latest U.S. Energy Storage Monitor report released today by the American Clean Power Association (ACP) and Wood. .
For years, the energy storage market in the United States existed on speculation. There was plenty of discussion on the technology’s ability to improve the electrical grid but very little follow-through. The mood started to shift in the 2020s. Each quarter has a new record-breaking storage.
