Program Summary
In 2021, L.D. 528 was enacted, establishing state energy storage goals of 300 MW of installed capacity by the end of 2025 and 400 MW by the end of 2030. In 2023, L.D. 1850 was enacted amending the goals to specify that "at least" 300 MW and 400 MW must be installed by their respective deadlines. The legislation allows the Governor's Energy Office in 2024 and every two years to reevaluate and increase the state's goals.
