Technical FAQs 4

Does Ottawa have a battery energy storage plan?

In 2025, the City of Ottawa established official plan and zoning provisions for battery energy storage uses in accordance with new Official Plan policy. BESS is an emerging technology using batteries and associated equipment to store excess energy from the electrical grid, which can then discharge energy in periods of high demand.

What is the Crimson energy storage project?

The Crimson Energy Storage Project, solar power. More: Original public domain image from Flickr A proposed 250-megawatt battery storage installation in Ottawa’s rural west won a resounding vote of confidence Wednesday as Ottawa City Council approved a municipal support resolution (MSR) for the project on a 20-3 vote.

What is the largest energy storage procurement in Canada?

This represented the largest energy storage procurement ever in Canada. A report was tabled at the November 30, 2023 Agricultural and Rural Affairs Committee on four proposed BESS projects within Ottawa, one of which project received Council support, known as a Municipal Support Resolution (MSR).

Who approves energy storage systems in Ontario?

The primary authority for the Installation and Approval of Energy Storage Systems connected to the electrical grid in Ontario is the Electrical Safety Authority (ESA). The ESA administers Part VIII of the Electricity Act and oversees the Ontario Electrical Safety Code (OESC).
