30kw energy storage in New York USA

When built, the facility will be able to hold up to 100 megawatts (MW) and power over tens of thousands of households. Once completed, the project will be amongst the largest battery storage installations in New York State.

Con Edison has said it is working to promote the efficient operation of 1,000 MW of energy storage in the New York metropolitan region by 2030. The company reported there were 493 customer-owned BESSs installed in New York City and Westchester, a county north of the city, as of March 2023. The total capacity of those systems was about 25 MW.

New York state has ambitious energy storage goals of 1,500 MW by 2025 and 6,000 MW by 2030 through a variety of efforts. Con Edison commissioned its first utility-owned storage project in 2018—a 2-MW/12-MWh lithium-iron phosphate battery in Ozone Park, Queens.

The facility will serve as a large-scale battery energy storage system capable of charging from, and discharging into, the New York power grid. When fully functional, the 100MW battery energy storage project will be able to discharge electricity to the grid particularly during peak demand.

NYCIDA closed its largest battery energy storage project to date, the East River Energy Storage Project, located on an industrial site on the East River in Astoria, Queens. When built, the facility will be able to hold up to 100 megawatts (MW) and power over tens of thousands of households.

“The advent of large-scale energy storage technology also greatly increases our opportunities to integrate clean, renewable power into the mix and transition to a low-carbon future.” New York state has ambitious energy storage goals of 1,500 MW by 2025 and 6,000 MW by 2030 through a variety of efforts.
