New York wants to deploy storage at speed, but developers are hitting one major barrier: interconnection.

As the state pushes to deploy gigawatts of storage, projects are increasingly caught in long, uncertain queues, with upgrade costs that can make or break a business case. But while the bulk system slows under its own weight, smaller scale distributed storage is accelerating. These assets can move faster, connect more predictably, and get to market in time to capture NYISO’s rapidly evolving value streams.

In this episode of Transmission, Daniel Gavrilov, CEO of Limitless Energy Co, speaks to Alex to break down how the grid’s bottlenecks are shaping development strategy in one of the most active energy storage markets in the US.

Key topics covered:

• The practical realities of developing storage in New York.

• Where timelines get stretched and where they don’t.

• Why C&I storage is becoming the backbone of near-term deployment.

• How developers evaluate siting, costs, and grid upgrade risk.
