Case Study: MESA-1
! 2 MW / 1 MWh energy storage system installed at a substation in Everett, Washington
! Owned and operated by Snohomish County PUD, the nation�s 12th largest public power utility
! Two inverters, two lithium-ion batteries " One inverter vendor, two battery vendors
! Implements multiple ESS applications including: " Peak Power Limiting " Power Factor Correction " Dynamic Volt-Watt
! Built using Draft 3
SunSpec Energy Storage Specification Background
! Workgroup worked in 2015/2016 to produce an updated draft
! Focused on four key aspects: " Extending 800-series to include flow batteries (e.g. vanadium redox)
" Providing additional lithium-ion detail
" Addressing feedback from early adopters
" Correcting errors and inconsistencies in Draft 3
! Final version completed March 2016, offered to public
