Technical FAQs 4

How many MW of energy storage does Georgia Power need?

Georgia Power is seeking 500 MW of energy storage that can discharge for at least two hours. The energy storage can be standalone, or with a new or existing renewable resource. Ascend Analytics is administering the request for proposal (RFP) on behalf of Georgia Power.

Will Georgia Power add storage to solar projects?

In its IRP, Georgia Power detailed adding storage to solar projects, saying that its adoption of solar+storage versus solar-only generation at sites is currently at 17%. Georgia Power first examined energy storage in its 2019 IRP, with approval to build, own and operate 80 MW of BESS at the time.

How many MW will Georgia Power Add in 2022?

This builds upon Georgia Power’s current plans to add more than 1,500 MW of BESS in the coming years, according to Georgia Power. The Georgia Public Service Commission (PSC) approved the RFP as a part of the company’s 2022 integrated resource plan (IRP).

How much energy does Georgia Power use?

In July Georgia Power requested certification from the PSC for 9.9 GW of new generation resources, 3 GW of which were for energy storage. Over the next five to six years, the utility projects approximately 8.2 GW of electrical load growth, up more than 2.2 GW overall when compared to projections in its 2023 IRP Update.
