The California plans to replace natural gas power generation with solar energy storage

City of glendale, California has been seeking to use renewable energy to replace ageing Grayson, natural gas power plants, and specify the scope of the project, and the division of each particular power type.

all this has changed, because the city has issued a plan, the battery energy storage system, distributed solar energy, geothermal energy alternatives to the plant's existing power generation facilities. According to the capacity, the need to deploy a 75 MW / 300 MWH battery energy storage system, a capacity of 50 MW distributed solar projects, and develop a plan of energy efficiency and demand response. The plan also calls for reserves of natural gas power plants part of peak power generation facilities, the plant a total of 5 gas generator, a total installed capacity of 93 mw.

glendale city, said the plant is in accordance with the requirements of SB 100 bill to power supply. The bill is last year by the clean energy of task, its goals include, by 2030, utility companies 60% of electricity from clean energy, 100% of the electricity from clean energy by 2045.

this is the second home in California this month by the battery energy storage system to replace the power plants ( At least partially replace) And another is located in Oakland a fuel power plants, by a 20 mw / 80 MWH replaced battery energy storage system.

industry experts pointed out that the battery energy storage system is likely to become energy revolution road next dominoes, as the American association of storage capacity for the future prediction, and battery energy storage system investment sharply increased year by year, the price of the battery is falling fast. Exciting is that people will now battery energy storage system as a solution phase out fossil fuel power plants, and energy storage system is a distributed energy to provide power. Town in glendale, adopts the distributed power generation facilities to provide electricity every day is no longer a dream, but a reality.
