In 2020, the ISO-managed grid had just ~122 MW of battery storage. Since then, more than 14,000MW 🔋 have been added to the grid—a real game changer for reliability during summer periods of peak demand.

⚡ Batteries are powering forward reliability. www.latimes.com/environment/...
California made it through another summer without a Flex Alert. Thank batteries, experts say
Batteries that pair with clean solar and wind energy or just bolster electrical grids in general have completely taken off and are making a big difference on the California grid.

Fall is bringing lower energy bills! 

In September, electricity rates decreased by 2.1% for all Ava and PG&E customers. For an average household in our service area, that means monthly bills will decrease by $3-$5. Higher summer rates also ended on 9/30.

Thank you for being an Ava customer ⚡🤗
