Tesla Battery Storage Technology Used in TransAlta’s Launch of Commercial Storage Project

Sundance Powerplant

TransAlta Corporation has been awarded $250,000 from Alberta Innovates – Energy & Environment Solutions (AI-EES) to help launch Alberta’s first large-scale commercial energy storage project.
TransAlta will use commercial-scale lithium-ion batteries to reduce energy costs for the customer. Five commercial-scale Tesla Powerpack batteries will be installed, each about the size of a household fridge, in a medium-sized building, such as a large grocery store, apartment block, post-secondary institution building or small office tower.

“TransAlta is at the forefront of our industry in using innovation to improve environmental performance in power generation, and we are now implementing new and sustainable ways to store energy, setting the stage for the future,” said President and CEO Dawn Farrell. “This project demonstrates our commitment to sustainable technology advancement.”
