Trina Storage announced it has partnered with FlexGen to deliver a 371-MWh battery energy storage system in Houston, Texas. The project, developed by SMT Energy, is Trina Storage’s largest grid-scale deployment in North America.
This large-scale storage project uses Trina Storage’s advanced Elementa 2 solution, designed to optimize energy performance and reliability while mitigating operational risks, along with long-term services provided together with FlexGen to ensure asset reliability.
FlexGen will provide system integration and deploy its HybridOS energy management software, which enables site operators to manage systems with ease, detect issues faster, predict maintenance needs and ultimately maximize operational efficiency.
“This project is a testament to Trina Storage’s ability to provide a fully bankable, integrated energy storage solution that meets the evolving needs of the market,” said Terry Chen, VP of Trina Storage North America. “As our first grid-scale deployment in North America, this achievement reflects the industry’s confidence in our technology and our commitment to de-risking energy storage investments and supporting the energy transition in the region.”
Macquarie and KeyBank served as equity and tax offtake partners in the transaction.
