According to research firm Wood Mackenzie’s new report, ‘All aboard the tariff coaster: implications for the US power industry,’ tariffs on imports will affect battery storage more badly than the solar PV or wind sectors.
According to research firm Wood Mackenzie’s new report, ‘All aboard the tariff coaster: implications for the US power industry,’ tariffs on imports will affect battery storage more badly than the solar PV or wind sectors.
The new U.S. import tariffs, including a 10% baseline on all goods and higher rates for key trading partners, such as China, Malaysia and Vietnam, is expected to have a significant impact on the U.S. battery energy storage industry.
Since 2021, the US has imported over $100 billion in electric storage batteries and components, reaching record heights in 2024, according to the S&P Global Market Intelligence Global Trade Analytics Suite.
It is essential to the nation’s continued economic health, global competitiveness and energy security to quickly address our overdependence on solar and energy storage component imports and lay the foundation for a robust solar and energy storage manufacturing base here in America.
