Just as PV systems can be installed in small-to-medium-sized installations to serve residential and commercial buildings, so too can energy storage systems—often in the form of lithium-ion batteries. NREL researchers study the benefits of such systems to property owners, their impact on the electric grid, and the effects on. . Energy storage has become an increasingly common component of utility-scale solar energy systems in the United States Much of NREL's. . The Storage Futures Studyconsidered when and where a range of storage technologies are cost-competitive, depending on how they're operated and what services they provide. [pdf]
Another interesting energy storage ETF is GRID, which is focused on alternative energy infrastructure companies such as power management company Eaton Corp. (ETN), industrial conglomerate Johnson Controls International PLC (JCI), and electronics and automation pioneer Abb Ltd. (ABB).
With rapidly falling solar PV and battery energy storage costs (U.S. Energy Storage Monitor: Q3 2018 Full Report, 2018, U.S. Energy Storage Monitor: Q3 2018 Full Report, 2018), there is a growing interest in using behind-the-meter, grid-connected solar PV and energy storage systems for energy and demand savings.
Solar-plus-storage shifts some of the solar system's output to evening and night hours and provides other grid benefits. NREL employs a variety of analysis approaches to understand the factors that influence solar-plus-storage deployment and how solar-plus-storage will affect energy systems.
This work focuses on the emerging market for distributed solar PV paired with battery energy storage (“solar-plus-storage”) in commercial buildings across the United States.
Where systems were found to be economical, expected lifetime savings averaged between 7%–10%, with savings of 30% in numerous cases. Near term markets exist for solar-plus-storage in locations such as California and New York.
This research found that retail rates were the strongest driver of PV economic viability, more so than load profile or solar resource. Some work has also been done to optimize the size and savings of storage-only systems.

In 2022, Switzerland derived 6% of its electricity from solar power. Studies show that installing solar panels on mountaintops in the could produce at least 16 terawatt-hours (TWh) a year, approaching half of the nation's 2050 solar energy target. Typically, solar panels in Switzerland are mounted on existing infrastructure like mountain huts, ski lifts, and dams, with larger-scale installations in the Alps remaining rare. [pdf]

Typically, solar panels in Switzerland are mounted on existing infrastructure like mountain huts, ski lifts, and dams, with larger-scale installations in the Alps remaining rare. On September 10, 2023, 54% of Valais voters rejected Alpine solar project proposals due to environmental and aesthetic concerns.
This decision, opposed by the Swiss People's Party and environmental groups, suggests a preference for solar development in urban areas. Valais, known as one of Switzerland's sunniest regions suitable for solar parks, witnessed a significant vote that impacts the direction of renewable energy projects within the canton.

Ruth P. Briones, Chair and CEO, Greenergy Solutions, announced during the groundbreaking that the Cordon Solar project will be the first of four large-scale utility solar plus storage projects the company will construct in Isabela province, Philippines.

Managed by Axpo, it generates about 3.3 million kilowatt hours annually, sufficient for 700 households. Switzerland's federal parliament amended the Energy Act in 2022 to expedite the approval process for new solar plants, reflecting a shift toward sustainable energy amid the country's nuclear phase-out.
Briones added that the company was able to secure about 300 hectares of land for the project. The solar facility will be constructed within an area of 75-hectares covered by a Special Land Use Permit to be converted into a 25-year Forestland Lease Agreement (FLAG) issued by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).
