β¦ Synopsis
To demonstrate the economic and operational feasibility of using lead/ acid batteries for load management by electric utilities, a 10 MW/40 MW h battery energy storage plant is being constructed at the 12 kV substation of Southern California Edison Company in Chino, California. This U.S. $13 million project is a cooperative effort

This project is directed to the research, development and demonstration of advanced lead-acid battery technology, leading to increased cycle life, energy efficiency and area density, and to reduced initial cost ($/kW h) and operating and maintenance cost (mil/kW h) of the battery for electric utilit
requirements will be evaluated. Limited charge optimization studies will be undertaken to quantify the energy efficiency/capacity trade-offs and to establish optimized charging procedures. Battery temperatures under various operating conditions will be analyzed and recommended methods for proper the
