Georgia electrical co-op to set up 1.85-MW solar, 4-MWh storage space project

• Gas supplier Gas South and also Georgia electrical utility Cobb EMC began on a solar + storage space in Marietta, Georgia.

" We're dedicated to budget friendly, renewable resource as well as redefining what it implies to be a power professional," claimed Peter Heintzelman, Cobb EMC head of state and also CEO. "This project allows us to evaluate the efficiency benefit and also resiliency of photovoltaic panels as well as battery storage space, which will certainly profit Cobb EMC participants for years to find. We're honored to sustain sustainability initiatives that make economic feeling for every one of our participants."

The 1.85-MW solar, 1-MW/4-MWh battery project is being contributed to the Cobb EMC university to assist power its procedures. The power storage space section of the project will certainly additionally aid the participating find out just how to far better assistance solar and also battery projects for huge clients. In April, Cobb EMC will certainly include in the project 3 Smart Flowers that will certainly supply an added 13,140 kWh of power.
