LCG, June 4, 2025--Energy Vault Holdings Inc. (Energy Vault) and Jupiter Power (Jupiter) today announced the signing of an agreement for the supply of an additional battery energy storage system (BESS) at a Jupiter site in the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) region. The initial BESS project, located near Fort Stockton, Texas, was completed in July 2024, with a storage capacity 100 MW/200 MWh. The new BESS project will add another 100 MW/200 MWh of capacity. Construction has commenced, and the project is expected to achieve commercial operations by the end of this summer.

New York City Begins Testing Mini-Power Plants
LCG, June 5, 2001The New York Power Authority said yesterday it has begun testing the 11 mini-power plants it is installing in New York City and on Long Island in order to provide 484 megawatts of much-needed power this summer and avoid California-style blackouts."We successfully tested unit 1 at Hell Gate in the Bronx this morning. We started the unit up, ran some tests and synced it to the grid," Luis Rodriguez, a spokesman for the NYPA, told Reuters news service.Rodriguez said that 10 of the 11 turbine generators will be tested by the end of this month, Rodriguez said, but one unit in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn was delayed by lengthy site preparation.Last summer, New York City escaped serious power supply problems only because of mild weather, the New York State Public Service Commission found, but the PSC said at the time that the city would need at least 315 megawatts of additional generation for this summer.The commission asked the NYPA to develop a plan to meet the power shortfall and the installation of the 11 small turbines began earlier this year. The project will cost more than $500 million.Where two 44 megawatt turbines are installed on a single site, output will be limited to 79.9 megawatts to avoid violating a state law that requires any power plant 80 megawatts or larger to be approved by the State Siting Board, a process that takes a year or more and would have prevented the plants from being on line this summer.
