How the Program Works
During an Energy Storage Solutions event, your battery may be called up to discharge stored energy to help stabilize the grid when electricity demand is at its highest.
Your system participates automatically without requiring any action from you.
Key details:
- Enroll using the MySolArk web or mobile app.
- To be eligible for Energy Storage Solutions, the customer must have an Eversource electric service account located in Connecticut, and the BESS must be located at the electric service account location. Additionally, the residential, commercial, or industrial building must be connected to the grid by agreement with the EDCs.
- You cannot participate in more than one VPP program.
Enrollment Incentives: Residential customers can qualify for an upfront cost reduction of $30 per kWh of battery energy storage capacity. Grid-Edge customers can qualify for $130 per kWh.
Incentive payouts are performance-based and depend on system capacity, location, and other factors.* For details, visit the Energy Storage Solutions Calculator.
Events occur between June and September (Summer Season) and December and March (Winter Season).
The dispatch window is 12:00 to 21:00.
The standard event duration is expected to be 1 - 3 hours.
