About Energy Surety Partners
ESP develops advanced power projects that integrate clean energy generation technologies (solar and wind) with large scale energy storage to provide "firm" renewable power. Combining intermittent renewable generation technologies with storage yields "firm" power that can be relied upon to meet base and/or peak load needs. Energy storage also provides a range of energy solutions that optimize existing generation, transmission and distribution assets in the power grid. Firming intermittent renewable power generating assets and improving grid operations makes ESP projects attractive to utility grid operators, independent power producers and high volume electricity users while maximizing energy harvest to improve financial performance of the projects. ESP is currently developing 750 MW utility-scale renewable energy projects with over 150 MW of battery storage. In addition, ESP is conducting feasibility analysis on over 500 distributed generation project sites slated for Microgrid deployment in 2015 and 2016. Their leadership has over 75 years of technology and energy experience that includes over 60MW of battery storage deployment. http://www.energy-surety.com
