The Edwards & Sanborn solar-plus-storage project in California is now fully online, with 875MWdc of solar PV and 3,287MWh of battery energy storage system (BESS) capacity, the world's largest. The 4,600-acre project in Kern County is made up of 1. 9 million PV modules from First Solar and BESS units. . Huge energy storage systems based on batteries are intended to store excess electricity from renewables and thus stabilize the grid. This is done by huge batteries. The problem with reservoir hydro systems is that the storage reservoirs require significant space which can have environmental and social impacts.
