Energy Storage Industry Convenes on Social Media to Announce that "#StorageIsHere"

WASHINGTON, March 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- During the week of March 28 - April 1, the Energy Storage Association (ESA) and their partner organizations, member companies and energy industry allies, will be flooding social media channels with #StorageIsHere. This campaign will bring energy storage installation pictures, case studies, press releases, blog posts and multimedia content to Facebook, LinkedIn and Twitter to raise awareness about the thousands of successful energy storage projects and installations across the globe.

The energy storage industry is booming - with more than 240% growth in the U.S. last year. According to the GTM Research/ESA's U.S. Energy Storage Monitor, the U.S. deployed 112MW of energy storage capacity in the fourth quarter of 2015, making it the most successful quarter to date with more installations than in all of 2013 and 2014 combined.

The #StorageIsHere campaign was created to help tell that story and to bring awareness of energy storage to consumers. Energy storage companies from around the world will be sharing information about the industry's rapid growth, successful projects and the impact that energy storage is having on our entire energy economy.

For an in depth look at the paradigm shift from energy storage and to learn from the experts, join the #StorageIsHere Twitter chat on Wednesday, March 30^th at 1:30pm-2:30pm ET.
