Form Energy’s Post

We are pleased to share that Form Energy has been selected by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to deploy an 85 MW/8500 MWh multi-day battery system in Maine - the largest energy storage project by energy capacity announced yet in the world. As part of the Power Up New England initiative, Form’s multi-day battery system will be located at the site of a former paper and tissue mill in Lincoln, Maine and will enhance the reliability, sustainability, and affordability of New England’s electric grid, while driving job growth and economic benefits in the local Lincoln community. Thank you to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Commonwealth of Massachusetts, State of Maine, ISO New England Inc., town of Lincoln, and many community groups that helped bring us on board for Power Up New England - a transformative investment for the future of clean energy and grid modernization in New England and America! 🇺🇲 Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/g7ZA2fRe

What can multi-day energy storage do for the Pacific Northwest? Recently, Form’s Analytics team published a new white paper on the value that clean, dispatchable resources could bring to the Pacific Northwest within this decade. Using Form’s grid modeling toolkit, the team found that at least 3 GW of multi-day storage would be part of the least-cost, decarbonized portfolio in the Pacific Northwest in 2030. Multi-day storage has particular potential in the Pacific Northwest due to its ability to complement the region’s hydropower system, shifting energy from times of abundance to times when extra reliability is needed.

We were thrilled to host U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito for a visit at Form Factory 1 in Weirton, WV as part of her Northern Panhandle tour focused on economic development and community revitalization. Thanks to the support from Senator Capito and other fantastic federal, state, and local leadership, since breaking ground on the factory just last year, we’ve nearly reached construction completion, and have begun building battery cells and ramping up our Weirton manufacturing workforce.  We are grateful for Senator Capito’s commitment to reinvesting in American infrastructure and manufacturing and are proud to work with her to continue to benefit West Virginia.
