OHSWEKEN – The governments of Canada and Ontario are working together to build the largest battery storage project in the country. The 250-megawatt (MW) Oneida Energy storage project is being developed in partnership with the Six Nations of the Grand River Development Corporation, Northland Power, NRStor and Aecon Group.
The project was completed ahead of schedule and under budget and is the largest battery energy storage facility in operation in Canada. “Today marks a major milestone for Northland and the Oneida project,” said Christine Healy, President & Chief Executive Officer of Northland.
Some technologies, like pumped hydro, have a long history in Canada. Others, like battery energy storage systems (BESS) are new technologies to many and raise questions, especially as project approvals anticipate the integration of these assets into peoples' communities.
Christine Healy, president and chief executive officer of Northland Power, said: “We are delivering needed battery storage as one of the ways we provide energy solutions in Canada and around the world. This BESS project will enhance the stability and reliability of Alberta's energy grid, expand our footprint in Canada, and diversify our asset base.
BESS is the fastest growing energy storage technology in Canada and is also the dominant storage technology in terms of capacity and number of sites. All but four projects proposed to be commissioned by 2030 are battery storage, with two CAES and two PHS projects also proposed.
Delivering this project ahead of schedule and under budget is a clear demonstration of Northland's capability to execute large-scale energy projects safely and effectively.” Located in Haldimand County, Ontario, Oneida is a 250 MW / 1,000 MWh battery storage facility. It is Northland's first operational energy storage project in Canada.
