The Stanton Energy Reliability Center – Battery Energy Storage System is a 10,000kW energy storage project located in Stanton, Orange, California, US.
The project was announced in 2019 and will be commissioned in 2021.
Description
The Stanton Energy Reliability Center – Battery Energy Storage System is being developed by Stanton Energy Reliability Center. The project is owned by Stanton Energy Reliability Center (100%).
The key applications of the project are balancing energy demand and managing intermittent resources.
Contractors involved
Stanton Energy Reliability Center is the owner. Stanton Energy Reliability Center is the developer. GE Renewable Energy is the technology provider for the project.
GE Renewable Energy is the system integrator.
Additional information
GE Renewable Energy has reached an agreement with Stanton Energy Reliability Center , LLC (SERC) to integrate Battery Energy Storage systems with two LM6000 Gas Turbines. In periods of high power demand, the LM6000 starts up quickly and can reach full power generation in 5 minutes, while the battery system is able to also provide immediate response for other actual or prospective services. The battery, always synchronized to the grid, will discharge stored energy while the gas turbine starts and reaches full power, which allows the system to be dispatched immediately and provide power when needed.
Methodology
All publicly-announced energy storage projects included in this analysis are drawn from GlobalData’s Power IC. The information regarding the projects are sourced through secondary information sources such as country specific power players, company news and reports, statistical organisations, regulatory body, government planning reports and their publications and is further validated through primary from various stakeholders such as power utility companies, consultants, energy associations of respective countries, government bodies and professionals from leading players in the power sector.
