Lily solar + storage project, US

Name of the Project
Lily solar + storage project.

Location
The project is located south-east of Dallas in Kaufman County, Texas, in the US.

Enel Green Power.

Project Description
The Lily solar + storage project comprises a 146 MW ac photovoltaic (PV) facility, paired with a 50 MW ac battery.

Lily’s 421 400 PV bifacial panels are expected to generate more than 367 GWh/y, which will be delivered to the grid and will charge the co-located battery, equivalent to avoiding the emission of more than 242 000 t/y of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

The battery storage system can store up to 75 MWh at a time, to be dispatched when solar power generation is low while providing the grid with access to a clean supply of electricity during periods of high demand.
