ESS Announces Successful Commissioning of Long-Duration Iron Flow Battery Systems at Turlock Irrigation District Solar-Over-Canal Project
Project Demonstrates ESS Technology in an Innovative Infrastructure Application, Combining Energy Storage, Renewable Generation and Water Conservation
Commissioning Marks Operational Milestone for ESS and Supports TID’s
The project pairs ESS iron flow battery technology with solar panels installed above active irrigation canals, an innovative configuration designed to generate renewable electricity while helping reduce water evaporation. ESS believes the project demonstrates the ability of long-duration iron flow battery technology to support critical infrastructure applications where reliability, safety and flexible energy dispatch are important.
“The successful commissioning of this project is an important milestone for ESS and a strong demonstration of our iron flow battery technology in a real-world infrastructure application,” said
The solar-over-canal configuration is drawing growing interest as water agencies and utilities look for ways to address both energy and water challenges. By combining renewable generation with long-duration storage, the TID project is designed to improve the usability of solar power produced at the site while also supporting water conservation objectives.
ESS’s iron flow battery technology uses iron, salt and water as its primary materials and is designed to provide safe, long-duration energy storage for stationary applications. The collaboration underscores ESS’s commitment to safe and sustainable energy infrastructure.
