The completed facility is made up of 156 individual battery storage containers, 40 power converter units, and an interconnecting 115/34.5kV substation. It is the largest facility of its kind in the state: the 175 megawatts 350 megawatt-hours of energy increases existing energy storage capacity in Maine by more than 300 percent.

Team members throughout Cianbro's Power & Energy team have worked diligently on this project with engineering and procurement, starting in early 2022.
