Technical FAQs 4

What is an energy storage project?

An energy storage project is a cluster of battery banks (or modules) that are connected to the electrical grid. These battery banks are roughly the same size as a shipping container. These are also called Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS), or grid-scale/utility-scale energy storage or battery storage systems.

What is the largest battery energy storage project in the world?

SAN DIEGO, August 19, 2020 – LS Power today unveiled the largest battery energy storage project in the world – Gateway Energy Storage. The 250 megawatt (MW) Gateway project, located in the East Otay Mesa community in San Diego County, California, enhances grid reliability and reduces customer energy costs.

Where are the energy storage projects being built?

The energy storage projects will be located at three existing SCE power substations: 225 MW at Springvale Substation in Big Creek-Ventura, 200 MW at Hinson Substation in the Los Angeles Basin, and 112.5 MW at Etiwanda Substation in the Los Angeles Basin.

What is the energy storage grant programme?

The programme will provide direct grants for the construction of the projects, with a target to support at least 1.2GWh of energy storage projects. The grants will cover a maximum of 30% of the projects’ capital expenditure costs.
