SACRAMENTO – California is boosting battery storage projects across the state – an important part of the state’s transition to 100% clean electricity. California today approved a $42 million grant to International Electric Power to build a long-duration energy storage project at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton in San Diego County.
General Inquiries: Planning & Development Services PDS.LongRangePlanning@sdcounty.ca.gov | (858) 505-6677 Learn more about the County of San Diego's Battery Energy Storage Systems Project.
The project will provide electricity to the statewide grid and backup power to the base for up to 14 days during power outages. The battery system will help enhance the resiliency of California's electricity grid, the region and the base, providing a replicable model that can be applied broadly.
Paradise Microgrid and Battery Energy Storage System Project SDG&E has been rapidly expanding its battery energy storage and microgrid portfolio. We have around 21 BESS and microgrid sites with 335 megawatts (MW) of utility-owned energy storage and another 49+ MW in development.
A Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a technology designed to store and manage energy for later use. It typically uses rechargeable batteries to store energy from various sources, such as the electrical grid, renewable energy sources like solar or wind power, or other power generation methods. Some benefits of a BESS include:

San Diego GHG Case Study | Shell Energy
By working with Shell Energy to add battery-backed microgrids to key municipal buildings, the city will reduce building emissions and generate cost savings of ~$6 million from reduced electricity costs over 25 years, assuming San Diego Gas & Electric rates increase by 4% a year 1. This will lower the city''s operational costs and potentially free up budget for future sustainability projects.
