The District of Columbia — America’s federal capital, with a population of 700,000 and a GDP exceeding $140 billion — is one of America’s most distinctive battery markets. DC’s economy is entirely dominated by the federal government, making it unique among US jurisdictions.
Washington DC is home to the US federal government apparatus: the White House, Congress, the Supreme Court, and all federal agencies. The Washington DC metropolitan area also hosts major federal contractor headquarters, research institutions (Georgetown University, George Washington University, Howard University), and technology companies.
The District of Columbia has ambitious renewable energy targets, including a 100% renewable electricity requirement for all city-owned buildings by 2030. The DC Public Service Commission has driven significant solar-plus-storage investment throughout the district.
