Grid Status

Spring 2026 saw a wave of record-setting clean-energy performance (solar, wind, batteries) across multiple states, underpinned by fat storage capacity and shifting regulatory dynamics.

Heat-wave stress test shows grid resilience driven by rapid clean-energy deployment, with Texas solar supplying over 30% of an 83 GW peak, plus regulatory and nuclear developments shaping future investments.

Offshore wind in New England delivered hundreds of MW during a heat wave, cutting oil use and boosting grid resilience, while regulatory headwinds loom for future projects.
