NextEra, PGE open US’ first wind-solar-battery project as Inflation Reduction Act ups storage options

Renewable energy advocates believe the Inflation Reduction Act will pave the way for more hybrid storage projects like Wheatridge Renewable Energy Facilities, which opened in Morrow County, Oregon, last week. The joint effort from NextEra Energy Resources and Portland General Electric is the nation’s first utility-scale project combining wind and solar generation with energy storage, according to the companies. The installation includes 300 MW of wind, 50 MW of solar and 30 MW of battery storage. The Wheatridge system uses electricity from the solar assets to charge the batteries; the storage can provide continuous power for four hours. A NextEra subsidiary built and will operate the combined facility. PGE owns 100 MW of the output, and the subsidiary owns the rest, which it will sell to PGE under 30- and 20-year power purchase agreements.
