Will a Dunrobin battery energy storage system give Ottawa Free Money?

(Credit: ASHLEY FRASER) For the majority of Ottawa’s city councillors, approving the Dunrobin battery energy storage system (BESS) was a no-brainer. Battery storage makes variable wind and solar power more practical. Sounds good. Allowing the project means that the battery company will give the city free money, even better.

Is a 250-megawatt battery storage project in Ottawa down?

This post has been updated with a comment from Evolugen’s Geoff Wright. A proposed 250-megawatt battery storage project in Ottawa’s rural west is down but not out, after the city’s Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee (ARAC) voted unanimously last week to reject the plan.

Is rural battery storage a good idea in Ontario?

“Battery storage plays only a minor, peripheral role in Ontario’s plan, never exceeding a few percent of system capacity,” the group points out. All considered, it seems as if urban councillors’ enthusiasm for rural battery storage plants is a little misplaced. Too bad rural residents have to pay the price.
