Con Edison: Tesla Batteries?

“Stacking” battery storage uses,
. . . to capture the benefits from a number of value streams:
. . . . . . Transmission Capacity,
. . . . . . Distribution Capacity,
. . . . . . Spin,
. . . . . . Energy,
. . . . . . Frequency Regulation, and
. . . . . . Generation Capacity.

But, in some states,
. . . utilities can only own storage, to provide distribution services,
. . . so regulatory confusion exists,
. . . over whether energy storage should be defined as generation,
. . . or something else.

Orange & Rockland Utilities, a subsidiary of
. . . Consolidated Edison, New York state’s largest utility company,
. . .filed a proposal with the state’s Public Utilities Commission,
. . . to test whether adding Tesla Powerpack grid storage batteries,
. . . “can provide a range of services,
. . . with costs and benefits shared by multiple stakeholders.”
