East Setauket Energy Storage
Reliable Energy Storage for a Sustainable Tomorrow
Commitment to Clean Energy
East Setauket Energy Storage is a proposed 373 MW, four-hour, battery energy storage facility within the unincorporated hamlet of Port Jefferson Station, in the Town of Brookhaven, that will bring many positive impacts to the local economy and community. The Facility will store electricity that will be dispatched to LIPA's local electric grid during peak demand hours or during emergency outages and will be able to power the equivalent of approximately 70,600 New York homes. We look forward to working in partnership with Town and County officials, local residents, and business owners on the development of this clean energy project.
East Setauket Project Information
HOMES POWERED
Power the equivalent of approximately 70,600 New York homes.
ACRES
The project is expected to utilize approximately 19 acres.
SIZE
This is a 373 MW, four-hour, battery energy storage facility.
LOCATION
East Setauket Energy Storage is located on Sheep Pasture Road in the unincorporated hamlet of Port Jefferson Station in the Town of Brookhaven.
INTERCONNECTION
The facility will connect to the existing Long Island Power Authority (LIPA) 138 kV transmission line adjacent to the project site.
Local Benefits of Energy Storage
Battery energy storage facilities make great neighbors. They are quiet, clean, and safe. Unlike other types of industrial development, they do not pose a strain on public infrastructure, schools, or emergency services. East Setauket Storage will contribute to New York State’s movement to lessen dependence on fossil fuel sources and move toward renewable energy sources, thereby improving air quality and the environment for local residents.
East Setauket Storage will be a true “silent revenue generator” that benefits the entire community over several decades. These types of facilities generate local property taxes, which can help fund public schools and infrastructure. During construction, the project is anticipated to create approximately 60 onsite jobs at its peak and additional indirect jobs. Battery energy storage facilities can also lead to long-term cost savings for consumers by lowering the overall cost of providing electricity and allowing customers to avoid paying premium pricing or “peak demand” rates.
