Developers added 501 MW of new wind power capacity in the U.S. from July to September, marking one of the slowest third quarters on record for project completion.
The figure was 22% of the 2,227 MW of wind capacity energized in the third quarter of 2021, according to S&P Global Market Intelligence data. No other third quarter recorded lower wind capacity additions since at least 2015, the first year of the dataset.
Mitsubishi Power plans to supply three utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) projects in the southeastern U.S.
Totaling 150 MW/600 MWh, the BESS projects will be co-located with three Origis Energy photovoltaic solar facilities. Mitsubishi Power said the projects will likely come online in the next two years.

It’s been a tough week for the rooftop solar industry.
Nearly a week after California regulators voted to slash compensation for rooftop solar customers, the industry suffered another blow, this time in Georgia.
The Georgia Public Service Commission approved Georgia Power Company’s plan to raise power rates by $1.8 billion or 12% over three years.
There is a roadmap required to move your utility to the future. Systems must be ready to handle the decarbonization and decentralization challenges posed by the energy transition. They will encompass a diverse set of generation assets, enable close to real time data analytics across transmission and distribution, and empower consumers’ active participation. Future energy will harness interlocking systems that are collaborative, adaptive and decarbonized.
AWS is how leading organizations across the energy value chain are transforming, innovating, and accelerating their businesses. Together, we are accelerating the energy transition through practical innovations for today and tomorrow that deliver energy efficiently, reliably, sustainably, and responsibly. AWS brings the most advanced and secure cloud services and deep industry expertise across energy, utilities, and sustainable energy sectors.
Around 100 lucky (or perhaps not so lucky) low-income customers who have been frequently impacted by outages due to Pacific Gas & Electric’s Enhanced Powerline Safety Settings (EPSS) initiative could get a no-cost battery system courtesy of the utility and Enphase Energy.
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Several of Indiana’s major employers want their local utilities to make it easier for them to buy power generated by wind and solar farms so they can move closer to their renewable energy goals.
A government energy minister in Quebec scrapped a planned call for tenders by Hydro-Québec for wind and other renewable energy resources. The tender was slated for release by December 31.
A plan now calls for the development of 4 GW of wind energy resources in the Canadian province. Hydro-Québec is expected to launch a procurement process in the coming months.
The developer of Commonwealth Wind in Massachusetts asked state regulators to dismiss their review of power purchase agreements tied to the 1,223 MW offshore wind farm.
Avangrid has cited economic conditions such as supply chain disruptions, inflation, rising interest rates and cost increases for offshore wind equipment. The company said the project “cannot be financed and built under the current PPAs.”
