SESPE Consulting was engaged for the noise impact analysis for the Ventura battery storage project in 2019. Tesla has been selected as the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor by Strata Power for the development of Ventura battery storage project. The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) approved the PPA in December 2019.Ĭontractors involved in the Ventura battery storage project The electricity from the project will be supplied to Southern California Edison (SCE), a subsidiary of Edison International, under a 20-year power purchase agreement signed in April 2019. The stored electricity from the Megapack battery unit will be evacuated into Southern California Edison (SCE) national grid through a 66kV transmission line system that stretches from Santa Clarita Valley, across Ventura County and into Santa Barbara County. ![]() The Megapack batteries placed in cabinet or containers will store the energy in non-peak hours and release it back to the grid during peak demand. ![]() ![]() The other component in the project will include a water storage system and underground medium-voltage transmission lines. Both the Megapack and transformers will be arranged in rows and separated by Class II base gravel drive aisles. The project will also deploy 36 transformers along with an accessory substation and single-breaker line tap facility. Each Megapack battery includes a self-contained cabinet, which is about 30ft long, 8ft wide and 8fthigh. The Ventura standalone battery storage facility will feature 142 Tesla Megapack lithium-ion batteries each with a storage capacity of 3MW. The site was selected for a clean non-emitting battery energy project in place of the NRG’s Puente gas-fired power plant, which was proposed as a replacement for the decommissioned Mandalay power plant on the Oxnard coast. The battery storage facility will be developed nearby a critical transmission line. The project will occupy a three-acre brownfield site in a private industrial park near the Ventura County Juvenile Justice Centre.
