Global capability was around 8 500 GWh in 2020, accounting for over 90% of total global electricity storage. The world''s largest capacity is found in the United States. The majority of plants in operation today are used to provide daily balancing. Grid-scale batteries are catching up, however. Although currently far smaller than pumped

The U.S. conventional hydropower fleet includes 2,252 hydropower plants with a total generating capacity of 80.58 GW.1 The U.S. hydropower fleet produced 28.7% of electricity from renewables and 6.2% of all electricity in 2022. U.S. conventional hydropower capacity increased by 2.1 GW from 2010 to 2022.

The storing of electricity typically occurs in chemical (e.g., lead acid batteries or lithium-ion batteries, to name just two of the best known) or mechanical means (e.g., pumped hydro storage). Thermal energy storage systems can be as simple as hot-water tanks, but more advanced technologies can store energy more densely (e.g., molten salts
