Strata Clean Energy president Josh Rogol said: “This groundbreaking demonstrates a considerable advancement in large-scale sustainable energy solutions in a major growing metropolitan area, underscoring Strata’s dedication to addressing critical grid challenges.

In 2023, Strata entered into a 20-year tolling agreement with APS for the Scatter Wash battery storage complex.

The agreement was the result of the All-Source request for proposal (RFP) conducted by APS in May 2022.

The RFP was issued to meet the growing demand for affordable and clean electricity from residential and business customers.

Strata will be responsible for the construction, ownership and operation of the Scatter Wash battery storage complex.

In April 2023, Mortenson was chosen as Strata’s engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) partner for the project.

The project will utilise Tesla‘s Megapack 2XL, an integrated battery system featuring advanced technology, software and power conversion systems.

The battery system is claimed to efficiently store and dispatch electrical energy to and from the grid during optimal periods.
