Figuring Out a Battery Storage System to Fit New York''s Wind and Solar
Solar and wind power are planned to develop in tandem with battery storage so excess energy can be saved while nature provides wind or sun. Battery storage is meant to
Battery energy storage systems in New York City are rigorously regulated, with oversight from the safety industry, federal, state, and local authorities. All code, location, spacing, and other local requirements must be met.
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.
“Battery storage will play a significant role in advancing New York City's just transition to a clean energy future and will help to replace dependency on highly pollutive peaker plants that emit dangerous pollutants - ultimately creating a brighter and healthier future for all New Yorkers,” said NYCEDC President & CEO Andrew Kimball.
CUNY is the lead implementer of the NYSolar Smart DG Hub, in partnership with Meister Consultants Group and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. The DG Hub is supported by the U.S. Department of Energy's Solar Market Pathways program, the NY-Sun Initiative, and the New York Power Authority.
