Should energy storage be included in the electric grid?

Integrating storage in the electric grid, especially in areas with high energy demand, will allow clean energy to be available when and where it is most needed. As New York continues to invest and build a cleaner grid, energy storage will allow us to use existing resources more efficiently and phase out the dirtiest power plants.

Should you choose an EPC contract for a solar project?

Given the significant monetary value of EPC Contracts, and the potential adverse consequences if problems occur during construction, the lowest price should not be the only factor used when selecting a Contractor.

Will EPC contracts provide for the handover of a solar facility?

EPC Contracts will not provide for the handover of the solar facility to the Project Company, and the PPA will not become effective until all commissioning and reliability trialling has been successfully completed.

How will energy storage affect New York's energy grid?

In June 2024, New York’s Public Service Commission expanded the goal to 6,000 MW by 2030. Storage will increase the resilience and efficiency of New York’s grid, which will be 100% carbon-free electricity by 2040. Additionally, energy storage can stabilize supply during peak electric usage and help keep critical systems online during an outage.

What happens if the EPC contract is uncertain?

What is a bankable EPC contract?
