Now that the Lāwa’i project is online, as much as 40% of our evening peak power will be supplied by stored solar energy. I think it’s safe to say this is a unique achievement in the nation and possibly the world. Replacing fossil fuels with stable, lower-priced renewables helps us keep rates as low as possible for our members.

Revolutionizing energy storage with Southern California Edison

Once seen as a risky, unproven technology, energy storage became a game-changer thanks to the Alamitos BESS project, developed by AES, Fluence, and Southern California Edison (SCE). This landmark project - the first standalone energy storage system for local capacity and the first to secure a long-term PPA - set a new industry standard by replacing a natural gas peaker plant. Recognized for its impact, the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) honored Alamitos BESS with the 2021 U.S. Edison Award.
