The energy capacity of these sites was 1,688 MWh, and the maximum power that could be provided to the grid from these sites at any given moment (power capacity) was 1,022 megawatts (MW). Much of the recent increase in new storage capacity comes from battery energy systems co-located with or connected to solar projects.

Following the start of the project in September 2015, a redox flow battery system (2 MW x 4 hours) was constructed for a power grid at a substation in San Diego. Demonstration will now be carried out to evaluate the management of surplus electricity and regulation of grid frequency and voltage fluctuation.
