Find opportunities for new investment, identify new counterparties, and access new information that can be input into models or verify data from other sources.

UTILITIESplug

Better understand the regulatory status of proposed batteries, allow benchmarking of utility projects, and identify key supply chain trends.

Developersdatacenter

Identify siting opportunities, benchmark competitors, and understand interconnection timelines to accelerate project development.

Energy traders + Analystsenergy-trader

Track deployments and operational statuses that influence net load, congestion patterns, and arbitrage opportunities.

Data Methodology

Halcyon's BESS Tracker compiles information on newly proposed, in development, and under construction battery energy storage systems across the United States. The tracker was released in December 2025 with projects over 100 MW of capacity and began adding projects under 100 MW in January 2026. The Tracker consolidates key project details into a structured, research-ready dataset, drawing from state public utility commission (PUC) dockets and the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) datasets.


Each project entry captures essential attributes such as docket numbers, project names, capacity, size, duration, technology type, operating year, point-of-interconnection substation and voltage, and developers. Where available, the dataset includes granular details such as battery manufacturer, cost figures, co-location specifics, and inverter make, model, and rating.

Halcyon's analysts use AI-assisted search to identify relevant filings, and each data point is validated by subject-matter experts. The result is a uniquely reliable resource for understanding the scale, timing, and characteristics of upcoming battery storage across the U.S. electricity landscape.

Halcyon will update the tracker on a monthly basis to incorporate new projects and update existing projects as information becomes available. We also continuously add new data and new data fields based on your feedback.
