STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- By 2029, New York City will house dozens of battery energy storage sites, each storing thousands of kilowatts of energy near homes, schools, churches

Energy storage can smooth out or firm wind- and solar-farm output; that is, it can reduce the variability of power produced at a given moment. The incremental price for firming wind power can be as low as two to three cents per kilowatt-hour. Solar-power firming generally costs as much as ten cents per kilowatt-hour, because solar farms

Essentially, the relaxation of the planning rules means that battery storage projects above 50MW in England, and 350MW in Wales can now go ahead without needing to be approved through the national planning regime. The planning regime previously treated storage projects as ''energy generation'' where projects over 50MW had to go through
