Enel North America

⭐ Major milestone unlocked. Enel North America just surpassed 10 GW of installed clean power capacity and 1 GW of large-scale energy storage capacity. This record reaffirms our position as one of the largest renewables operators in the US and Canada with nearly 25 years at the forefront of the clean energy transition.

🔥 Summer is in full swing and at a record-hot pace in over 30 U.S. cities. That means the grid is under serious pressure to keep Americans cool. Grid operators cannot rely only on expensive peaking power plants to meet increasing energy demand. There is a cleaner, more cost-effective: solution: demand response. Here are some proven examples of how demand response is playing its part in keeping the grid stable during the heatwaves 👇

Texas is heating up, and so is the demand for reliable energy. How do Enel's Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) support ERCOT during the summer? 🔋BESS stores and shifts energy to critical, flexible capacity when most needed. 🔋BESS provides fast-response services (in seconds) to balance demand and supply rapidly. 🔋BESS projects support a low-cost, clean, resilient grid for homes and businesses. With 9 utility-scale projects totaling 1.3 GW capacity and 5 more on the way, Enel's batteries provide critical grid services to keep the Texas grid stable. Look at some of our BESS projects that make possible a reliable energy summer in the Lone Star state 👇

Join us on July 30 at 1:00 PM EST for a live webinar with Peter Holzaepfel and Robert Kraynak from Enel North America. They'll be breaking down the results of MISO's 2024 Planning Resource Auction (PRA) and what they mean for your organization. Learn about the outcomes of the PRA for 2024/2025, our projections for next year, and strategic steps your organization can take to navigate this dynamic market.

It's #WorldEmojiDay, but we still have to use this emoji 💨 for wind energy or this one ☀️ for solar panels. #Unicode - would it be possible to add more clean energy emojis, like the ones below? Let's make it easy for people to chat about renewables, the grid, and sustainability!

🏆Sun-sational news. Enel’s Aurora solar farm won "Best Solar Ecosystem" in the first edition of the North American Agrivoltaics Awards. The Atwater and Eastwood solar sites, part of our Aurora distributed solar farm in Minnesota, were recognized for successfully integrating native plant restoration, tripling insect abundance, and triggering a 20x increase in native bee populations. 🐝 Thank you to our team and long-time partners MNL, Argonne National Laboratory and National Renewable Energy Laboratory. Together, we've demonstrated that combining solar power with ecosystem services is possible. For more: http://ms.spr.ly/6047lzLGD

🔋Everything is bigger in Texas – including battery power. Enel is proud to be the top Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) player in ERCOT, with 9 utility-scale projects totaling 1.3 GW capacity ready to support the grid. ERCOT faces major challenges: demand is going up, extreme weather is worsening, and the energy mix is evolving. With flexible capacity and fast-response ancillary services, Enel’s batteries are helping stabilize the grid when demand spikes. And we’re not slowing down. We're currently building 5 new BESS projects, bringing our total capacity to 1.5 GW. This solidifies our leadership in Texas - an energy market that is a global leader in BESS adoption.

What exactly is 10 GW of clean power capacity? The answer goes beyond clean electricity. It's also about businesses going sustainable, Americans getting reliable energy, local people getting more jobs, rural communities having better schools and public services – and much more. Uncover the full impact of our 10 GW portfolio. 👇

A peaking power plant can quickly respond to grid operators' calls when electricity demand is high – but the power they supply is costly and typically generated using fossil fuels. As we face increasingly scorching summers, will peaker plants be the only solution to keep the grid stable? (Spoiler alert: no) Let’s explore what peaking power plants are. 👇 For more: http://ms.spr.ly/6046l1XnC

Today, we celebrate the ideals of liberty and justice for all. We remember the sacrifices made to secure our freedoms, and the ongoing fight to make those ideals a reality for everyone. May we continue to build a brighter future where the promise of freedom shines for generations to come. #FourthOfJuly
