CEC Approves World''s Largest Solar + Battery Storage Project in
Once built, DCEP will be the largest battery energy storage system in the world, highlighting California''s leadership in clean energy innovation and infrastructure.
Located in Valley Center, San Diego County, CA, the Valley Center Energy Storage Facility is a stand-alone 139MW energy storage project located on 7-acre property within land within Valley Center's commercial-industrial zone.
The Valley Center Energy Storage Facility produces enough electricity to power up to 140,000 homes for four hours on a single charge, and includes long-term power purchase agreements with San Diego Gas & Electric.
The procurement by SDG&E was approved by the regulatory California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) in January 2021 along with Vista Energy Storage, a smaller 10MW project from LS Power.
Earlier this month, the regulator also approved a plan to add more than 25.5GW of renewables and 15GW of storage in the state by 2032 at a cost of US$49 billion. Terra-Gen says the Valley Center project is providing US$40 million to the local area in jobs and economic activity, which equates to around US$71,000 per megawatt-hour.
