Utility-scale battery storage could be one pillar to provide additional grid stability by helping to meet peak demand, help integrate variable renewables, and, especially for industrial consumers, provide continuous electricity during load shedding and outages. Load shedding is the deliberate stoppage of electrical power supply by system operators as a preventive measure to maintain system balance when supply is currently or expected to be short of demand load. In 2022, this led to unprecedented load shedding of more than 8 terawatt-hours (TWh), which was.
