Commercial and Residential Energy Storage Systems for Growth in Rooftop Solar Energy - Energy - Solar Energy

The exponential growth of rooftop solar energy since the turn of the millennium has both paved the way and provided the impetus for growth in distributed energy storage. This trend has shown what is possible with distributed resources on the grid and greatly advanced interconnection standards around the world, but at the same time it is increasing the strain on local distribution networks in areas of high adoption.  This is the first major change driving the urgency for distributed energy storage, but there are changes on the consumption side of the equation too.
