PV Integrated Energy Storage
UC San Diego and SDG&E have submitted a grant application to test, demonstrate and evaluate a variety of PV integrated energy storage projects over a 12 – 24 month period. This initiative if funded will test multiple applications at multiple sites and timely disseminate the resulting analysis for the benefit of utilities, grid planners, regulators, inverter manufacturers, system integrators, business modelers, energy storage manufacturers and other early adopters. CleanTECH San Diego supports this initiative as part of efforts to advance the region as an IHub. In August of 2010, the Governor’s Office of Economic Development designated the greater San Diego region as an Innovation Hub (IHub) for solar energy storage. The purpose of the IHub is to build on the region’s existing innovation infrastructure and strong culture of collaboration to accelerate the convergence of solar energy and energy storage.
