Mortenson Valley Center Energy Storage Facility

Located in Valley Center, San Diego County, CA, and co-located within Terra-Gen’s existing wind generation project footprint, the Valley Center Energy Storage Facility is a stand-alone 139MW energy storage project located on 7-acre property within land within Valley Center’s commercial-industrial zone. Hiller was chosen to develop a program for fire alarm and suppression testing, inspection, and maintenance of 41 battery energy storage enclosures. The Valley Center Energy Storage Facility produces enough electricity to power up to 140,000 homes for four hours on a single charge. It includes long-term power purchase agreements with San Diego Gas & Electric. The Project provides essential grid reliability services to the local area and helps integrate more significant supplies of renewable energy in California. It has also provided the local community tens of millions in tangible economic benefits through direct and indirect jobs associated with the Project’s construction, increased property taxes, and donations to the local Valley Center Fire Protection District.
