WASHINGTON D.C.,听April 14, 2026 鈥�听The 欧美情色片 Association (欧美情色片) today celebrated Governor Spanberger鈥檚 signing into law House Bill 895 and Senate Bill 448,听a bipartisan measure to reduce energy price volatility, strengthen grid reliability, and accelerate the state鈥檚 ongoing transition to American-made clean energy.听

At a time of rapidly growing electricity demand and increasing system costs nationally, House Bill 895 and Senate Bill 448听represent听a milestone for state-level grid and energy storage policies in the country. The law provides a durable framework for Virginia and a model for other states on how to deploy proven grid solutions that enhance reliability and reduce price volatility for Virginia consumers.听听

鈥淓nergy storage is one of the most effective tools Virginia can deploy to keep electricity affordable and reliable today and into the future,鈥� said听欧美情色片 Chief Advocacy Officer Frank听Macchiarola. 鈥淕overnor Spanberger is committed to strengthening Virginia鈥檚 energy future, and 欧美情色片 strongly supports her leadership on energy storage issues.听听

Governor Spanberger听听House Bill 895 and Senate Bill 448 as one of her priority bills at the beginning of Virginia鈥檚 legislative session, recognizing the importance of deploying energy storage to lower peak prices for ratepayers.听

鈥淓nergy storage leverages new and existing resources to deliver low-cost energy when Virginians need it most,鈥� added听Macchiarola. 鈥淐lear, ambitious state policy initiatives like this legislation from Del. Richard Sullivan III and Sen. Lamont Bagby will unlock thousands of megawatts of energy storage projects ready to be built today鈥攃reating jobs and ensuring the Commonwealth benefits from a more reliable, resilient grid.鈥�听

House Bill 895 and Senate Bill 448 authorize a state-level energy storage capacity target of 4,000 MW by 2030 and set a nation-leading goal of 16,000 MW of short-duration energy storage capacity by 2045; the bills also create new opportunities to bolster long-duration energy storage developments.听听

Virginia ranks among the top 5 states for projects in the pipeline, according to 欧美情色片鈥檚听2025 Q4 Market Report. With House Bill 895 and Senate Bill 448, the Commonwealth aims to create new energy-sector jobs, strengthen manufacturing supply chains, and ensure stable, reliable power for the state鈥檚 growing economy.听

“Virginia faces growing challenges with electricity affordability and reliability. Energy storage can help by delivering power when听it鈥檚听needed most,鈥� said Diane Cherry, Deputy Director of MAREC Action. 鈥淭o do that, we need to expand storage procurement targets 鈥� with carveouts for long- and short-duration resources. That will deploy a full range of technologies, meet rising demand, and give developers the predictability to advance projects so they can help ratepayers and communities. We look forward to continued engagement as the Commonwealth advances rulemaking and modernizes its energy system.鈥�听

A recent 欧美情色片 analysis听found that the average Virginian will spend an听additional听$5,200 over the next ten years if no new clean power is built. Energy storage development can alleviate one of the most persistent challenges in our power system: electricity supply and demand do not always align.听听

The 欧美情色片 commends Virginia鈥檚 legislative leaders for their commitment to developing reliable, affordable, and clean power for every community across the state.
