Although energy storage comes in different shapes and sizes, the lithium-ion Battery Energy Storage System (“BESS”) is the fastest emerging technology in North America and is planned to be deployed in the City of Ottawa with the Ottawa BESS 2 Project.
In 2025, the City of Ottawa established official plan and zoning provisions for battery energy storage uses in accordance with new Official Plan policy. BESS is an emerging technology using batteries and associated equipment to store excess energy from the electrical grid, which can then discharge energy in periods of high demand.
Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s) What are Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS)? Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are energy retention systems that store and then discharge electricity back into the electricity grid when supply is low or when energy is most expensive.
BESSes are already approved or under construction in Jarvis, Napanee and Spencerville. In Ottawa, a 150-megawatt battery-storage project for Trail Road has received municipal approval, but a 250-megawatt project by Evolugen for Fitzroy Harbour is facing pushback from some community members. Why Battery Energy Storage Systems?
Battery Energy Storage Systems support the integration of flexible generation resources and provide intelligent resilience to the regional electricity grid. Ottawa BESS 2 will further support the electrification of transport and the environmental sustainability goals laid out by the plans from the City of Ottawa.
Trail Road Battery Energy Storage Systems is a 150 MW battery storage project with 600 MWh of energy storage, located in the City of Ottawa, Ontario. Evolugen has partnered with AOPFN to develop, own and operate both the Fitzroy and Trail Road BESS projects.
The global industrial and commercial energy storage market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 250% in the past two years. Containerized energy storage solutions now account for approximately 45% of all new commercial and industrial storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 42% market share, driven by corporate sustainability initiatives and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 18-28%.
