Summary
As its first battery energy storage project, JPMorganChase partnered with Ameresco to deploy a 2 MW/8 MWh system at its Delaware Technology Center in Wilmington. The system captures excess onsite solar generation for use during periods of higher demand, helping reduce monthly utility costs and improve energy management. The project also provides operational insights to inform future energy storage applications across the organization.
“As our first battery storage project, we are excited to see how this technology can support more effective energy management. The insights gained at the Delaware Technology Center will help inform how we assess energy storage applications across our portfolio. We appreciate Ameresco’s longstanding partnership in bringing this project to completion.”
