On today's episode, Wes and David wrangle owner, Crystal Shank, into the podcast to review the update on the impact on batteries caused by California's NEM 3.0 regulations.
California's NEM 3.0 regulations will have a significant impact on the battery supply. NEM 3.0 sets new standards for energy storage systems, including batteries, and requires that these systems meet certain safety and performance requirements. The regulations are designed to improve the safety and reliability of energy storage systems and ensure that they meet the growing demand for clean energy in California.
To comply with the NEM 3.0 regulations, battery manufacturers must upgrade their products and production processes to meet the new standards. This may result in higher costs and longer lead times for battery suppliers, as they invest in new equipment and processes to meet the new regulations. Additionally, some suppliers may face challenges in sourcing materials and components that meet the new standards, which could also impact the battery supply.
NEM 3.0 will likely result in changes to the battery supply chain world-wide, including higher costs, longer lead times, and potential disruptions in the supply chain. However, the regulations are touted to improve the safety and reliability of energy storage systems, which is critical for the growth of clean energy in the state.
