Redwood Coast Energy Authority, in collaboration with the Schatz Energy Research Center, is hosting a free public workshop on grid-supporting battery energy storage.
This event will feature a presentation and panel discussion that explores how large-scale battery storage works, its role in supporting California’s grid, and how storage projects can differ in purpose, safety, size, and benefits.
Learn about existing projects in Humboldt County that support public services, such as the Redwood Coast Airport Microgrid and the Blue Lake Rancheria Microgrid, as well as our current needs for new storage development to enhance local energy reliability and maximize the benefits of solar generation.
This workshop will feature interactive segments, including small group conversations and a Q&A session, where community members will have the opportunity to ask questions, share concerns, and discuss locations across Humboldt County where battery storage could help meet reliability needs.
All are welcome. No RSVP required. For more information, visit redwoodenergy.org or call (707) 269-1700.
