Energizing Tomorrow
Developing battery energy storage projects is not just important, it is absolutely vital to ensure the stability and reliability of the ongoing transition to renewable energy sources. These projects serve as the backbone of the grid, acting as a buffer to absorb excess energy during peak production periods, and releasing it when demand is high.
By effectively managing the flow of energy supply, battery storage helps to create a more balanced and robust renewable energy system. Without such storage solutions, the integration of intermittent sources like wind and solar power, and Long Island’s aging transmission infrastructure, would face numerous challenges.
Therefore, dedicated efforts towards the development and implementation of battery energy storage projects are crucial for a sustainable and resilient future.
Why this project?
It provides electrical power
Helps reduce outages on eastern Long Island by driving grid stability and reliability. It also empowers renewable energy by integrating wind and solar power.
It reduces harmful emissions
Reduces reliance on fossil fuels for power by enabling greater use of renewables. This project is also a zero emissions facility crucial for a sustainable energy future.
It supports the local economy
Positive impact on the environment, local economy and workforce. Creates local economic benefits including construction jobs and tax revenues for the Town.
Is it safe?
Yes. It meets all codes & standards
Compliance with New York and national standards and codes. Commitment of the developer to follow the highest standard and best practice of safety and construction. Training and procedural instructions will be extended to the first responders in Southampton.
Yes. It is engineered to safely use
24/7 monitoring and remote control. Equipped with battery and thermal management and monitoring to prevent overheating. Automatic fire Detection and mitigation. Emergency Shutdown Protocols. Robust physical enclosures made of fire resistant materials.
Yes. It has a trusted safety record
Zero fatalities in 10 years with only 4 injuries in the United States that took place at one facility that was in operation prior to the nationwide standards UL9540A and NFPA 855 being published. In comparison: gas station fires average 3 deaths and 43 injuries per year in the United States.
