Tualatin, OR: Powin Energy Corporation, a provider of fully integrated energy storage solutions for utilities, C&I, and microgrid applications, announced June 15 that it is partnering with Hecate Energy to build, deliver, and install projects with a total capacity of 12.8 MW/52.8MWh at two sites in Ontario.
Powin's modular Stack140, powered by their bp-OS battery management software, will be the building block for each storage system.
The company says the six projects, split across two sites in Kitchener and Stratford, Ontario, comprise the largest rollout of energy storage in Canada and were expected to be online by the end of September. The projects were all contracted with the Independent Electricity System Operator in accordance with the province’s Long Term Energy Plan. The system in Stratford will be housed inside of a newly constructed building specifically designed to support twenty Powin Energy 2 MWh battery arrays. At the Kitchener location, six Powin Energy 2 MWh 40-foot outdoor battery energy storage products will be deployed.
Powin Energy's Stack140 is a modular, flexible, purpose-built 140kW battery array that designed to be easily and cost-effectively scalable from 125 kW to multiple megawatts using indoor cabinets or 20- or 40-foot containers for outdoor installations. It is powered by Powin's patented bp-OS battery management software and includes the industry-exclusive Battery Odometer and Warranty Tracker™.
