We're excited to announce that our partnership with GVEC is expanding across their full service territory, deploying 50 MW of residential battery storage across South Central Texas.
This expansion builds on a successful pilot and enables GVEC to bring significantly more dispatchable capacity online, further demonstrating how the utility-led distributed storage model can scale rapidly across a cooperative's full footprint.
