Southern California Edison has signed long-term contracts for four projects totaling 590 megawatts of battery energy storage, the utility announced Dec. 7.
Three of the contracts are for energy storage in lithium-ion batteries at utility-scale projects in the California and Nevada deserts. The fourth is a contract for energy from storage facilities owned by Edison customers.
The contracts come seven months after Southern California Edison, a subsidiary of Rosemead-based Edison International, signed another set of contracts for 770 megawatts of energy storage procurement.
