Recurrent Energy has two separate battery storage systems in Texas under development.
The projects, which will provide 400 MWh storage, are located in ERCOT’s South Zone. Recurrent purchased the projects from Houston-based developer Black Mountain Energy Storage.
The transactions were executed through the LevelTen Asset Marketplace.
“We ought to see pronounced volatility at these nodes for years to come, and these batteries will not only capture significant value but provide resiliency in a sparse region of ERCOT’s transmission network,” said Witt Duncan, Black Mountain’s director of corporate development.
