Project: Consolidated Edison – Transportable Grid Support Energy Storage
Location: New York State – Portable
Date: Current 2016
Client: Electrovaya/Consolidated Edison
Project Type: Transportable Energy Storage
Portable Energy Storage container which houses 420 Electrovaya Li-Ion batteries in racks, fire suppression, DC disconnect, auxiliary power distribution, controls and cooling equipment.
“The system will be designed to meet Con Edison’s requirements and ultimately be utilized for grid support and as an alternative to the standard mobile diesel systems. TESS will operate using advanced lithium ion batteries.”
“The project received support through the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority’s (NYSERDA) Smart Grid Program as part of Governor Cuomo’s Reforming the Energy Vision (REV), a comprehensive energy strategy to build a clean, resilient and affordable energy system for all New Yorkers.”
“Con Edison currently uses portable diesel generators for dispatchable, temporary on-site energy needs. Energy storage technology provides a much cleaner method of portable energy availability.”
