While there are nearly 50 energy storage projects currently listed within the Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO)’s projects list, the development of a 600MW portfolio of five solar-plus-storage projects by Westbridge Renewable Energy Corp. is underway.
There are three main types of energy storage currently commercially available in Canada: Storage is playing an increasingly important role in the electricity system by improving grid reliability and power quality, and by complementing variable renewable energy sources (VRES) like wind and solar.
The first energy storage project in Canada, the Sir Adam Beck Pump Generating Station, came online in 1957. However, the next project did not come online until 2013. There are three main types of energy storage currently commercially available in Canada:
Government funding for energy storage projects is increasing. The Smart Renewables and Electrification Pathways program (SREPs)—which supports clean electricity projects—recently announced $500 million in additional funding and a new round of intakes for the Utility Support Stream.
Costs for these resources are generally forecasted to decrease by approximately 20% by 2030, a further 20% by 2040, and a further 15% by 2050.
