While the Province is the regulator and owner of electricity generation supplies, municipalities have siting authority over new proposed renewable energy generation and storage projects, such as BESS. The amendments approved today would set policy direction for siting BESS within Ottawa's rural and urban areas.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's) What are Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)? Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are energy retention systems that store and then discharge electricity back into the electricity grid when supply is low or when energy is most expensive.
Additionally, the city will be required to demonstrate that Ottawa Fire Services' are satisfied with the design of each BESS facility, meeting effective fire and safety risk management. It will also be required to install fire prevention and suppression systems, as well as provide site-specific training for firefighters.
The report begins by recognising the complexity and uniqueness of BESS installations, recommending the addition of a new section to the City of Ottawa's development guidelines, known as the Official Plan, specifically aimed at new battery storage facilities.
This represented the largest energy storage procurement ever in Canada. A report was tabled at the November 30, 2023 Agricultural and Rural Affairs Committee on four proposed BESS projects within Ottawa, one of which project received Council support, known as a Municipal Support Resolution (MSR).
