Electrovaya Inc. will provide a lithium ion Battery Energy Storage System of approximately 1.2MWh for demonstration purposes in support of renewable energy generation in Ontario.
This program is a part of an Electrovaya-led C$7.6-million (US$7.8-million) project supported by the Government of Canada’s Clean Energy Fund (CEF) to investigate the potential use of battery energy storage systems in renewable energy projects such as wind and solar farms. Partners in the project include Natural Resources, Canada, Hydro One and others. Electrovaya is the prime contractor and system designer and will provide the full energy storage system.
This marks Electrovaya’s second major grid storage contract and is in addition to a 1.5MWh capacity lithium ion energy storage system being deployed by a major US utility, noted Dr. Sankar Das Gupta, Electrovaya’s CEO.
