The Massachusetts Energy Siting Facilities Board has approved two energy storage facilities with a combined capacity of 400 MW/800 MWh. This decision overturns previous rulings that hindered the development of these facilities. Once operational, they will fulfill 80% of the state’s 1 GWh energy storage deployment target for 2025.
Flatiron Energy's groundbreaking 300-MW battery storage project in Boston aims to enhance reliability and champion environmental justice by 2028. Powering a greener future starts here! Flatiron Energy has received approval from ISO New England for a 300-MW/1,200-MWh battery energy storage system in Boston, Massachusetts.
System operator ISO New England has given the go-ahead for a 300MW/1,200MWh indoor BESS located in Boston, Massachusetts under development by developer and IPP Flatiron Energy. ISO New England approved a proposed plan application associated with the project in the form of a letter published on the system operator’s website on 6 January, 2025.

The project is expected to be operational by May 26, 2028. Boulder, Colorado-based Flatiron Energy focuses on utility-scale battery storage systems in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, aiming to address climate change and promote environmental justice through its energy solutions for communities and electricity users.
Once operational, they will fulfill 80% of the state’s 1 GWh energy storage deployment target for 2025. The final rulings for the Cranberry Point Energy Storage and the Medway Grid projects were issued on June 30th. The Medway facility in Medway, Mass. will be located in the Eversource utility region, and connect to an Eversource substation.
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%. Europe follows closely with 35% market share, where standardized industrial storage designs have cut installation timelines by 65% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 50% CAGR, with manufacturing scale reducing system prices by 20% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting industrial storage solutions for peak shaving and backup power, with typical payback periods of 2-4 years. Major commercial projects now deploy clusters of 15+ systems creating storage networks with 80+MWh capacity at costs below $270/kWh for large-scale industrial applications.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving industrial energy storage performance while reducing costs. Next-generation battery management systems maintain optimal operating conditions with 45% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 20+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $85/kWh to $40/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple industrial systems to operate as coordinated energy networks, increasing cost savings by 30% through peak shaving and demand charge management. Safety innovations including multi-stage fire suppression and thermal runaway prevention systems have reduced insurance premiums by 35% for industrial storage projects. New modular designs enable capacity expansion through simple system additions at just $200/kWh for incremental capacity. These innovations have improved ROI significantly, with commercial and industrial projects typically achieving payback in 3-5 years depending on local electricity rates and incentive programs. Recent pricing trends show standard industrial systems (1-2MWh) starting at $330,000 and large-scale systems (3-6MWh) from $600,000, with volume discounts available for enterprise orders.
