A North Carolina company broke ground Jan. 18 on a large battery-storage facility in Phoenix that will accumulate power during the morning and early afternoon, then release it during peak-demand hours for utility APS and its customers.
Strata Clean Energy said it’s investing roughly $500 million in the Scatter Wash complex near Happy Valley Road and Seventh Avenue. The site will feature 312 batteries, each the size of a large storage container.
