“The beauty of energy storage is it can help California solve two problems simultaneously,” said Miguel Romero, SDG&E’s vice president of energy innovation. “It can soak up surplus renewable energy during the day, so solar and wind farms don’t have to cut off production when demand on the grid is low.
It began commercial operation in June. The Fallbrook energy storage project is also made up of stacks of lithium-ion batteries and began commercial operation in May. “Both facilities are equipped with safety features, remote monitoring, and automation technologies,” reads a statement from SDG&E.
