There are three main types of energy storage currently commercially available in Canada: Storage is playing an increasingly important role in the electricity system by improving grid reliability and power quality, and by complementing variable renewable energy sources (VRES) like wind and solar.
Canada’s total wind, solar and storage installed capacity grew 46% in the past 5 years (2019-2024), including nearly 5 GW of new wind, 2 GW of new utility-scale solar, 600 MW of new on-site solar, and 200 MW of new energy storage.
Ontario’s installed capacity is still the largest in Canada, at more than 7.5 GW (5.5 wind, nearly 2 solar, more than 100 MW storage), and while this total did not increase this year, it will soon, as Ontario invests in energy storage.
The municipal utility has more than 7,000 commercial and residential customers and sells surplus renewable power to NB Power. The eight wind farms in the province provide 203.6 MWs of renewable energy capacity, generating about 25 per cent of Prince Edward Island’s electricity supply.
PEI has a total peak electrical load of over 285 megawatts. Wind energy supports PEI’s decarbonization efforts, helps keep energy prices low for Islanders and reduces PEI’s need for energy sources from outside the province.
Canada has 341 wind energy projects producing power. Canada has 217 utility-scale solar energy projects producing power. There are nearly 96,000 onsite solar energy installations across Canada. February 19, 2025 – The Canadian Renewable Energy Association
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%.
