Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc., America’s leading innovator in designing, manufacturing, and providing zinc-based long-duration energy storage systems sourced and manufactured in the United States, has announced it has secured an order with Faraday Microgrids to deploy a 3 MW / 15 MWh Eos Z3 system for a commercial microgrid application on tribal land in California.
Funded partially by the California Energy Commission (CEC), the project will support the development of a renewable energy microgrid featuring a highly flexible long-duration energy storage system designed to bolster resilience for the tribe’s facilities, provide critical backup power, and deliver demand savings and utility ancillary services.
“This strategic project further demonstrates the performance and reliability of our Z3 systems in real-world applications. As a repeat order through our established partners at Faraday and the CEC, this deployment serves as a testament to the strength of our commercial relationships and reinforces our mission to deliver resilient, reliable, and domestically manufactured energy solutions.”
– Nathan Kroeker, Eos Chief Commercial Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer.
The project highlights Eos’ continued momentum in California’s growing energy market and its role in supporting American energy independence. Along with its Z3 systems, Eos will also provide integration services to ensure seamless deployment and operation.
“It is our great pleasure to once again partner with Eos to deploy their cutting-edge zinc-bromide energy storage technology in one of the largest renewable energy microgrids in the Western United States. This will support a Native American community and contribute to bulk grid-edge power stability and availability – demonstrating the ability of distributed energy resources to support the safety and growth of vibrant communities in California and across North America.”
– Faraday Chief Executive Officer David Bliss.
This is Eos’ eighth project in partnership with the CEC and second with Faraday Microgrids, highlighting the company’s growing presence in this critical market and the state’s commitment to advancing Made-in-USA energy storage applications.
Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. is accelerating the shift to American energy independence with positively ingenious solutions that transform how the world stores power.
