It uses Tesla ’s Megapack technology and is the first installation of this technology in Canada’s northern climate. The design team collaborated with the Albe rta Electric System Operator (AESO) to establish the project-specific\, el ectricity grid interconnection requirements and applicable standards.\n\nW indCharger has a nameplate capacity of 10MW\, a total storage capacity of 20MWh and can be fully charged in approximately two hours. This technology supports fully behind-the-fence renewable energy\, powered by TransAlta ’s Summer view II Wind Facility. The project’s total capital cost was approximately $14.5 million (CAD)\, approximately 50 percent funded throug h the support of Emissions Reduction Alberta. BBA was the lead design cons ultant and Iconic Power Systems completed the project’s construction.\n\ nThis presentation will elaborate on the key factors that led to the selec tion of the technology\, including performance and utility requirements. A dditional information will be provided about winter operation consideratio ns.\n\n"Fine Print"\n\n- The webinar is free for active IEEE members.\n- T here is a $5 registration fee for people who are not active IEEE members.\ n\n- The fee must be paid in advance through the registration process belo w (credit card through PayPal) in order to receive the link to the webinar .\n- Upon successful payment of the fee\, you will receive 2 emails: one f rom noreply_vtools@ieee.org with title "IEEE vTools Reservation Confirmati on\," and a second from service@intl.paypal.com with title "Your payment t o The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers\, Inc."
