The Southern California Edison Company Smart Grid Demonstration Project (2) is a U.S. Department of Energy Smart Grid Demonstration Project which is based in Rosemead, California.
Overview
Deploy and evaluate an 8 MW utility-scale lithium-ion battery technology to improve grid performance and aid in the integration of wind generation into the electric supply. The project will evaluate a wider range of applications for lithium-ion batteries that will spur broader demand for the technology, bringing production to a scale that will make this form of large energy storage more affordable.
