The American Clean Power Association (ACP) and the U.S. Energy Storage Association (ESA) have announced that ESA’s member companies approved the merger to join ACP effective January 1, 2022.
The merger furthers ACP’s advocacy strategy by incorporating more storage industry interests immediately. Ahead of the merger, ACP will establish a Storage Council that will guide the strategic priorities of ACP’s energy storage work. The Council ensures a diversity of business models and industry segments are represented throughout decision-making that impacts energy storage. ACP and ESA will work jointly to advocate enactment by Congress of the storage investment tax credit (ITC) this year as a top priority, along with continuing to make progress on policies that advance storage in states and in organized wholesale markets.
