Available Power and SNC-Lavalin and Hitachi Energy’s joint venture, Linxon, have announced their strategic partnership to develop the North American energy storage market. This partnership will give Linxon access to the equipment supply needed to deliver the first tranche of Available Power’s 1,000+ megawatt front-of-house project pipeline in the ERCOT market territory of Texas. This pipeline represents a 37% increase in installed battery capacity compared to December 2022.

Distribution-connected battery systems with an average size of 10 MW / 20 MWh each

Available Power’s project pipeline includes distribution-connected battery systems averaging 10 MW / 20 MWh each. 75% of the projects in this pipeline consist of these systems, making the portfolio one of the largest battery fleets ever announced by a developer. Ben Gregory, president of Available Power, says, “Battery energy storage is transforming and enhancing the operation of power grids. We are proud to combine Available Power’s development experience with Linxon’s industry-leading EPC credentials.

Innovation, portfolio transition and sustainability at the heart of Linxon’s strategy

Nicolas Sanloup, president and CEO of Linxon Americas, added that “our extensive experience in the energy sector and our ambitious strategy to decarbonize energy systems are at the core of our business to become a valuable partner and driver of the energy transition.” Linxon’s mission is to support its customers in the transition to a more sustainable world by introducing newer technologies and methodologies. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) is considered a key asset class by the company, which is focused on innovation, portfolio transition and sustainability.

Partnership to drive growth in U.S. energy storage market

While supply chain limitations have impacted the growth of the U.S. energy storage market, Available Power and Linxon’s strategic partnership, which gives them access to key equipment suppliers and subcontractors, puts both companies in a strong position to drive progress in 2023 and beyond. Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP served as legal counsel to Available Power in this strategic partnership.
