ESS to Deploy Long-Duration Energy Storage Technology with Turlock Irrigation District to Drive Decarbonization and Water Conservation
Innovative project combines ESS’ long-duration energy storage with solar canal canopies to provide dispatchable clean energy and reduce evaporative water loss
TID will use ESS technology to demonstrate the key role of long-duration energy storage in delivering reliable, dispatchable clean energy 24/7. ESS technology was selected for its inherently safe and non-toxic characteristics, making it preferable for siting adjacent to water infrastructure. Funding for the project is provided by the
“Long-duration energy storage is the key that will enable Project Nexus to not only conserve water and generate renewable energy, but provide on-demand, clean power 24/7,” said
Project Nexus is expected to be complete in 2024. ESS iron flow technology provides cost-effective long-duration energy storage and is ideal for applications that require up to 12 hours of flexible energy capacity. ESS technology is safe, non-toxic and has a 25-year design life without capacity fade.
