From utility-scale installations like our San Juan Capistrano project to commercial and residential systems, battery storage will become a standard component of energy infrastructure at all scales. At Compass Energy Storage, we're not just watching these trends—we're actively implementing these innovations in our projects.
Georgia Power announced today that construction is underway on 765-megawatts (MW) of new battery energy storage systems (BESS) strategically located across Georgia in Bibb, Lowndes, Floyd and Cherokee counties.
Transmission, distribution, and behind-the-meter end-user/customer integration are possible (Das et al., 2018). End-users, utilities, and power system operators use energy storage technologies at these sites. Fig. 1 shows that ESS services depend on electrical grid position.
An additional 1,000 MW of new battery energy storage is expected to be procured in the coming years through competitive bidding processes and a 13 MW demonstration project is in development at Fort Stewart Army Installation near Savannah, Georgia.
