Notable projects include the Saticoy Battery Energy Storage Facility in Oxnard, California, completed in 2020, which was among the largest battery storage facilities of its time, and the Scatter Wash Battery Storage Complex in Arizona, developed in 2023, representing one of the largest utility-scale storage projects (source: cbinsights.com).
