- Co-located solar and storage jumped to 16% of all installations, up from 2% in 2017, according to the EIA.
- EIA projects the share of solar projects co-located with storage will pass 30% over the next two years, based on planned additions.
Why it matters: For solar developers, the jump from 2% of installations in 2017 to 16% gives storage co-location a much larger footprint, while the EIA’s above-30% projection within two years, based on planned additions, shows its role expanding in the new-project mix.
