According to the company’s website press release on October 27, 2022, ENGIE announced it has acquired a 6 GW portfolio of solar, paired and stand-alone battery storage development projects from Belltown Power U.S. The transaction includes 33 projects comprising some 2.7 GW of Solar with 0.7 GW of paired storage and 2.6 GW of stand-alone battery storage. The projects are located across ERCOT, PJM, MISO and WECC (1).
ENGIE already has a strong position in North America, with 3.9 GW of installed renewable capacity at 100% as of June 30th 2022. The projects are a strong addition to ENGIE’s existing renewables and storage pipeline in the U.S.

By combining green electricity generation with paired and stand-alone storage, ENGIE will contribute to the flexibility of the grid to improve its reliability and resilience" said Paulo ALMIRANTE, ENGIE’s Senior Executive Vice-President, in charge of Renewable, Energy Management and Nuclear Activities.
