1GTM Research/ESA U.S. Energy Storage Monitor: 2015 Year in Review
U.S. Energy Storage Monitor is a quarterly publication of GTM Research and the Energy StorageAssociation (ESA). Each quarter, we gather data on U.S. energy storage deployments, prices, policies,regulations and business models. We compile this information into this report, which is intended toprovide the most comprehensive, timely analysis of energy storage in the U.S.
Notes:

• PJM (excl. NJ) was the largest utility-scale market in 2015, followed by All Others. California’s AB 2514 mandate procurement has notresulted in any front-of-meter deployments to date, keeping it out of a top-three spot in 2015.
• California was the largest non-residential market in 2015, 24 times bigger than the second-largest market, All Others.
• The residential segment continues to be diverse, with a significant number of projects deployed in emerging markets in 2015.Hawaii made changes to its net energy metering policy and showed promise in the second half of 2015, taking the top spot for
residential segment deployments.

• We expect significant growth in the U.S. market over the next five years across all segments, resulting in a 1,662 MW annual market by2020 – 26 times the size of the 2014 market and 8 times the size of the 2015 market.
• The behind-the-meter segment is expected to account for an ever-larger share of total MW deployed each year through 2020.

U.S. Energy Storage Market to Reach $2.5 Billion by 2020, Sixfold Growth From 2015
• The U.S. energy storage market grew from $134 million in 2014 to $432 million in 2015 (up 222%).
• By 2020, the U.S. energy storage market will be worth $2.5 billion, an 18-fold increase from 2014 and a sixfold increase from 2015.
• The utility-scale segment will continue to be the largest segment through 2020, growing from $347 million in 2015 to over $1 billion by2020. By 2019, the two behind-the-meter segments combined will be large than the utility segment.

• The total disclosed investment in 2014 was boosted by a rumored $250 million investment in Boston-Power (shaded in the figure above).
• In 2015, battery technologies accounted for over 50% of total investment, while software technologies accounted for over 40%.
Corporate Investments in Energy Storage Totaled $365 Million in 2015
Note: Data excludes battery materials and upstream companies. 2014 data differs from U.S. Energy Storage Monitor 2014 Year in Review due to exclusion of EV startup Atieva and inclusion of stealth startup Fluidic Energy.

Renewable Tax Credits Extension
14GTM Research/ESA U.S. Energy Storage Monitor: 2015 Year in Review
In December 2015, Congress passed an Omnibus Spending Bill which included a provision for the extension of the Investment Tax Credit(ITC) for solar and Production Tax Credit (PTC) for wind. Previously the ITC was set to step down at the end of 2016, resulting in a 10% taxcredit for non-residential and third-party owned (TPO) residential systems, and 0% for customer-owned residential systems. Similarly, thePTC had already expired on January 1, 2015.
With the renewal, the 30% solar ITC will remain active through 2019, stepping down to 26% in 2020 and 22% in 2021; in 2022 the ITC willstep down to the original levels proposed for 2017. A commence-construction clause is included as well, meaning that systems which arein the process of installation and interconnected by 2023 can still claim the larger tax credits. The 2.3-cent per kWh wind PTC wasretroactively extended for 2015 and also extended by one year. Starting in 2017, the PTC will reduce by 20% (of 2016 value) each yearthrough 2020. The ITC and PTC extensions will result in greater numbers of solar and wind installations.
If installed alongside solar PV or wind, energy storage systems have historically been able to claim the tax credits. Thus, the tax credit extensionhas implications for the energy storage industry as well as the renewables industry, and will affect deployment rates over the coming years.
The full report includes a discussion of the implications of the tax credit extensions on solar-plus-storage economics, as well as theimplications of recent net energy metering reform decisions.
