NREMC, a rural utility cooperative in Indiana, has just announced that it is deploying 108MWh of battery storage in a five-year project with energy storage technology and solutions provider FlexGen.
NREMC - Northeastern Rural Electric Membership Corporation - said that the full 108MWh of projects that it is partnering with FlexGen for will help reduce overall grid demand during peak times and lower consumers’ electricity rates while also providing backup power to some of its networks when weather or other events cause disruptions. The energy storage systems are projected to save consumers over US$35 million over 20 years, NREMC claimed.
