The US Department of Energy (DOE) will guarantee a loan from U.S. Bancorp Impact Finance for a project pairing 15MW of solar PV with 70MWh of long-duration energy storage (LDES) on Tribal Lands in California.
System integrator and project developer On.Energy has acquired nine in-development battery energy storage projects, which will play into California’s CAISO market.
