Enel Green Power North America, a subsidiary of Enel.

Project Description
Azure Sky solar + storage is Enel’s second large-scale hybrid project in North America to integrate solar and battery storage at one site.

The project comprises a 284 MW solar photovoltaic (PV) facility paired with an 81 MW battery.

The project’s nearly 700 000 PV bifacial panels are expected to generate more than 586 GWh/y, which will be delivered to the grid and will charge the battery located in the same facility. This is equivalent to avoiding the emission of more than 386 000 t/y of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The battery storage system will be capable of storing the power generated by the photovoltaic panels while providing services to enhance grid flexibility.
