“At Energy Storage Canada we're excited to see the IESO's announcement of more than 700 MW of energy storage projects as the next step in Canada's largest energy storage procurement to date,” said Justin Rangooni, Executive Director, Energy Storage Canada.
For further information visit: 16 May 2023 Today the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) announced seven new energy storage projects in Ontario for a total of 739 MW of capacity.
The Toronto-Hecate Energy-IESO Energy Storage Procurement Phase 1 is a 13,000kW lithium-ion battery energy storage project located in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The rated storage capacity of the project is 53,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology.
In addition to BESS projects, there are also many Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) technology-based projects advancing in Canada such as compressed air, pumped hydro and other non-lithium ion battery chemistries. About Energy Storage Canada: Energy Storage Canada is the only national voice for energy storage in Canada today.
Energy storage is also a critical tool in providing flexibility and reliability to the system to ensure energy is available when ratepayers need it. The IESO expects Ontario will have at least 1217 MW of energy storage capacity active in the market by 2026.
