"As we continue to develop our additional 1.5 GWh of battery energy storage projects in Texas, it is pivotal we continue to focus on medium-term equipment procurement, in order to quickly provide the Texas grid with resiliency and stability."

The 100MW of projects will improve the resilience of the ERCOT grid, enable integration of intermittent renewable energy, and improve the ability of the grid to balance load and supply in the region.
