Inside construction of the world’s largest lithium ion battery storage facility

Posted by on Dec 6, 2016 in Industry News | 0 comments

The largest battery storage system in the world will also be one of the fastest constructed in history.

In August, San Diego Gas & Electric tapped energy storage company AES to install two energy storage projects totaling 37.5 MW, 150 MWh. When completed, the larger, 120 MWh project is expected to be the single biggest lithium ion battery in service on a utility grid in the world.

Both battery facilities are expected to be online by the end of January 2017 — nothing short of miraculous in an industry where deploying assets, especially newfangled technologies, can take years.

And the companies are not alone. Southern California Edison and Tesla announced a 30 MW, 80 MWh project in September that is expected to be online even sooner, and will be the largest operating battery for a time.

There is perhaps no better story than lithium right now among small caps. We’ve been covering the lithium sector here at Insider Financial and have already profiled Oroplata Resources Inc (OTCMKTS:ORRP), Lithium Corporation (OTCMKTS:LTUM) and Lithium X Energy Corp (OTCMKTS:LIXXF). Now we’re going to turn our attention to Pure Energy Minerals Ltd, which trades under the symbols PE in Canada, PEMIF on the OTC Markets, and AHG1 in Germany.

There are countless reasons to be excited about lithium. Lithium is right now the one commodity everyone can agree upon that will continue rising in price. This comes as the lithium-ion battery is the battery of choice for cell phones, laptops, tablets, cameras, and power tools. Consumer electronics will need 4 to 5% more lithium each year for the rest of the decade.
