Big battery info sources
- wikipedia (but need to double check their sources also)
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_storage_power_station
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_energy_storage_power_plants
- tesla news sites
- https://www.tesmanian.com/
- https://www.teslarati.com/
- battery / ev news sites:
- https://www.energy-storage.news/
- https://cleantechnica.com/
- https://electrek.co/
- owners websites (they often list their portfolios)
- https://www.lspower.com/map/
- https://www.harmonyenergy.co.uk/projects/
- https://recurrentenergy.com/project-portfolio/#
- https://www.pluspower.com/home#projects
- https://broadreachpower.com/projects/
- https://arevonenergy.com/portfolio/
- https://www.res-group.com/en/portfolio/
- https://octopusrenewables.com/investment-solutions/
- https://www.hecateenergy.com/projects/
- https://www.ngk-insulators.com/en/product/nas-solutions.html
- authorities websites (often the applications are public)
- https://eplanning.blm.gov/eplanning-ui/home (this one is great as it even has a map search function)
- https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/epm_table_grapher.php?t=epmt_6_05 (this is a list of upcoming electric generating units including batteries, this one is very good)
- https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/epm_table_grapher.php?t=table_6_03 (list of installed generating units in the us)
- https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/renewable-energy-planning-database-monthly-extract UK renewable planning database
- https://www.marktstammdatenregister.de/MaStR Germany generation database
- e.g. goleta planning doc
- google
- search for the project name and add
approval
and e.g. the county name and often you will find the approval docs which are great to determine the exact location.
- google maps
- for old installations you will often be able to spot the installations on the satellite view and can then add precise GPS coordinates.
- youtube
- some installations will have drone flyover videos. From there it is also easy to determine exact location.
- Global Energy Storage Database (GESDB)
- https://www.sandia.gov/ess-ssl/global-energy-storage-database-home/
- one big excel list, however was last updated only in 2020
- Open Infra Map
- https://openinframap.org/#4.57/48.62/8.15
- has quite a few battery projects integrated. Great to see the nearby substations / pv parks on there
- Global Solar power tracker
- https://globalenergymonitor.org/projects/global-solar-power-tracker/
- Twitter (general battery accounts)
