Renewable Energy Magazine – Ameresco and Atura Power JV Selected to build 250 MW BESS

Ameresco was selected by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) in Canada. The company will complete the project with Atura Power through a joint venture (JV) known as the Napanee BESS Inc, entering into a twenty-year capacity agreement with the IESO. In addition to being a 10.1 percent minority partner in the Napanee BESS Inc. JV, Ameresco will provide Engineering and Construction (E&C) solutions and expertise for the installation of the BESS under separate contract with the JV.

The JV is looking forward to pursuing additional BESS opportunities throughout Ontario. The collective projects makeup the largest award of BESS in Canada’s history, and the energy generated from these new facilities will meet province-wide electrical capacity needs.
