Main Text

In collaboration with stakeholders, the California ISO (CAISO) is taking significant steps to integrate large amounts of renewable resources into the electric grid.  Among the key areas being evaluated is the need for energy storage technologies and processes to use services from storage facilities to assist with integration of renewable resources.

 

The CAISO held a stakeholder conference call on May 29, 2008 on integrating storage facilities onto the grid and into California Markets, and announced plans to postpone the follow-up meeting originally schedule for June 17 until a detailed project plan is produced. The CAISO anticipates that the stakeholder meeting will be rescheduled for mid to late July.

 

The CAISO requests comments on the initial Integration of Energy Storage Technology issue paper located at http://www.caiso.com/1fd5/1fd56f931140.pdf  by close of business June 20, 2008.
