We’re expanding our energy mix to create more reliable, responsible energy for the future. One of the ways we’re doing this is through battery storage. Battery storage systems charge from the grid or other generation resources when energy is abundant or demand is low, then release energy to the grid when needed.
The ability to capture and store excess energy improves the overall efficiency of our energy sources, increases system resilience and helps expand our generation portfolio. This enhanced flexibility avoids customer costs we would typically require to replace existing equipment or construct additional generation facilities to meet growing energy needs.
