Secretary warns U.S. grid needs transmission and firm capacity; says batteries provide minutes, not days, of storage In Paris, Secretary Wright said U.S. electricity generation has lagged even as fossil fuel production rose, called battery storage insufficient for long-duration needs ("3 or 4 minutes" of storage) and urged investment in transmission reconductoring and other grid projects.

Secretary Wright warns that despite soaring oil and gas production, the U.S. electricity grid is still struggling to meet peak demands, relying on batteries that last mere minutes.
