April 7, 2026 – New York has deployed, contracted, or awarded 1,952 megawatts of energy storage capacity as of March, surpassing its 1,500 MW benchmark for 2025 by 30 percent.

The total puts New York about one-third of the way toward its 6 gigawatt storage goal for 2030, according to the latest New York State of Storage report from the state’s Department of Public Service.

“This progress reflects years of coordinated policy, market development, and investment that are delivering results across the State,” New York State Public Service Commission Chairman Rory Christian said Monday.
