More Big Batteries Coming to the West, as EDF Renewables Nabs Deal with NV Energy

Wednesday, 29 July 2020, 21:52:00
EDF Renewables plans to build a 200-megawatt solar plant with a 180 megawatt/720 megawatt-hour battery for Nevada utility NV Energy, the developer announced Wednesday, adding to the growing list of large solar-and-storage projects under construction within the state and region. Even at that size, the project will only barely skate onto the list of the 10 largest batteries in the U.S., based on tracking of confirmed project details from Wood Mackenzie. This month NV Energy filed a proposal with state regulators to add 478 megawatts of new solar and 338 megawatts of new storage by the end of 2023. EDF’s project, called Chuckwalla Solar+Storage, is the largest among that portfolio. Only a year ago EDF’s plans would have ranked among the largest battery projects in the world , but announcements in recent months have continued to top each other. The largest solar and storage project currently planned in the U.S., Gemini Solar from Arevia Power and Quinbrook Infrastructure Partners, is also located in Nevada with NV Energy as offtaker.
