ENGIE adds 6 GW of solar and battery storage capacity to its development pipeline - Acquisition of 33 early to late-stage projects will accelerate renewables development across multiple states in North America.
HOUSTON, Oct. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ENGIE North America (ENGIE) announced it has acquired a 6 GW portfolio of solar, paired and stand-alone battery storage development projects from Belltown Power U.S. The transaction includes 33 projects comprising some 2.7 GW of Solar with 0.7 GW of paired storage and 2.6 GW of stand-alone battery storage. The projects are located across ERCOT, PJM, MISO and WECC1.
ENGIE already has a strong position in North America, with 3.9 GW of installed renewable capacity at 100% as of June 30, 2022. The projects are a strong addition to ENGIE's existing renewables and storage pipeline in the U.S.
"These projects are a tremendous addition to our existing renewables pipeline and will help to further accelerate ENGIE's role in the energy transition. The mix of solar, paired and stand-alone storage across a wide set of geographies both complements our existing portfolio as well as provides opportunities for expansion into new areas in the United States. The 3.3 GW of battery storage projects will be a critical enabler of flexibility and supports the balance of the grid to improve its reliability and resilience," said Dave Carroll, Chief Renewables Officer and Head of ENGIE North America.
