12.04.17 - State’s grid operator lays out plan to promote energy storage resources
"The state's grid operator is developing ways to reduce obstacles facing developers of batteries and other energy storage technologies selling their electricity in New York."
"The New York Independent System Operator is working on new market rules and software to allow energy storage resources to make a single bid into the wholesale electricity market and be more fully compensated for the value they provide, according to a roadmap released Monday. More storage resources can help complement additional renewable resources such as solar and wind that are not consistently available and also improve grid resiliency. NYISO hopes to have the new procedures finalized by 2020."
