Ameresco (NYSE: AMRC) and CPower Energy have received the E+E Leader Product & Project Awards' 'Judges' Choice' distinction for their Advanced Renewable Energy System project at U.S. Army Garrison Fort Detrick in Maryland. The project showcases innovation in energy resilience and grid support.
The implementation includes a 6 MW / 6 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) added to Fort Detrick's existing 18.6 MW DC solar facility. By connecting the battery to CPower's Virtual Power Plant (VPP), Ameresco generates revenue through PJM's Ancillary Services and Economic programs while maintaining power quality for local communities.
The project demonstrates how batteries can provide rapid grid support while maximizing customer benefits. Future developments may include integration into a microgrid system for backup power support during outages, enhancing the Army's mission-critical operations.
Ameresco (NYSE: AMRC) has partnered with the City of Hurst, Texas for a $9 million project to modernize water management infrastructure. The initiative includes replacing residential and commercial water meters and implementing advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) technology.
The project, which began in February 2024 with field surveys and meter testing, will feature mass meter deployment starting in May 2025. Key components include:
- Installation of new AMI technology
- Web-based customer portal for monitoring daily water consumption
- Lead-line and copper surveys to meet EPA requirements
- GPS coordinate collection for all accounts
This upgrade aims to address significant water waste concerns, as the EPA reports average American families waste up to 9,400 gallons annually. With 40 out of 50 U.S. state water managers expecting water shortages within the next decade, this technology will help the city better manage water resources and provide residents with improved usage monitoring capabilities.
Ameresco (NYSE: AMRC) has completed a solar PV project at the Tri-County Career Center in Nelsonville, Ohio, featuring a new 185kW DC solar system with bi-facial solar panels.
