Neoen Renewables Canada Inc. (Neoen) is proposing to construct a 250-Megawatt (MW), 1,000-Megawatt-hour (MWh) standalone battery energy storage system (BESS). The project is proposed for development on private land located near the intersection of Township Road 381 and Range Road 260 (NW and SW 7-38-25 W4M), in Red Deer County, approximately 11 km east of the City of Red Deer.
Valley Edge BESS (herein “the Project”), is a lithium-ion battery energy storage system designed to store and discharge electricity to the Alberta Interconnected Electric System (AIES), and to provide ancillary services such as frequency support, virtual inertia, and network support.
