$100 Billion Battery Commitment

May 07, 2025 

The American Clean Power Association (ACP), on behalf of the U.S. energy storage industry, has announced a commitment to invest $100 billion into building and buying American-made grid batteries. This investment is expected to fuel the creation of 350,000 jobs across the battery energy storage industry and transform the U.S. into a global battery manufacturing leader. The industry’s investment will advance a manufacturing expansion with the aim of enabling American-made batteries to meet 100% of domestic energy storage project demand.

The U.S. energy storage industry is committed to investing both capital for building new battery manufacturing facilities and procurement of American-made batteries for U.S. energy storage projects. Through this investment, the industry will advance American battery manufacturing leadership, enhance U.S. energy security, provide energy affordability and reliability, and drive international competitiveness. 

Battery energy storage is now a leading energy resource boosting electric grid reliability and keeping energy costs low. Since FERC Order 841 was issued in 2018, energy storage deployment has grown 25x.  

The energy storage industry is making significant progress in laying the groundwork for a domestic battery energy storage supply chain, building or expanding more than 25 manufacturing facilities for grid-scale energy storage.
