The California Power Fee (CEC) has voted to award Type Power a $30 million grant to assist deployment of a 5 MW multi-day vitality storage system within the state.
Type Power will construct the undertaking on the web site of a PG&E electrical substation in Mendocino County.
Anticipated to return on-line by 2025, this will likely be Type Power’s first undertaking in California and the primary multi-day vitality storage undertaking within the state.
The CEC is supporting this undertaking by means of its Lengthy Length Power Storage program, devoted to accelerating the implementation of non-lithium applied sciences. Type Power will use the grant funds to develop and function the undertaking, with PG&E offering land and an interconnection level on the substation web site.
“We’re excited to be constructing our first undertaking in California, a spot that holds particular significance to many Type Power staff as their dwelling state, and as my dwelling state, too,” says Mateo Jaramillo, CEO and co-Founding father of Type Power.
“Lengthy period, and particularly multi-day, vitality storage applied sciences have vital potential to assist California meet its decarbonization, affordability and reliability targets. We thank the CEC for this grant and for his or her continued management and we thank PG&E for his or her ongoing collaboration in serving to to convey this undertaking to fruition. We anticipate this would be the first of many multi-day storage tasks to return in California.”
