Battery Energy Storage Increases Grid Resiliency
In today’s technology-driven world and growing population, energy demand is increasing exponentially. With a growing economy and new job creation, Texas alone has gained 4.7 million people since 2010, equivalent to the entire population of Louisiana.
To meet this demand, a diversified and robust energy grid is critical to prevent blackouts and loss of power during emergencies.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can help keep the lights on in Texas by storing energy when production is high and releasing it during times of peak demand or outages. This ability to instantly provide backup power ensures a continuous electricity supply, stabilizing the grid and preventing blackouts. By balancing fluctuations in energy generation and consumption, battery storage enhances the reliability of the power grid, keeping homes and businesses powered even during emergencies or disruptions.
Battery storage projects also can bring millions in tax revenue for local government, schools, and infrastructure, and help save Texans money on their electricity bill by keeping costs stable when energy demand rises.
