Strata Clean Energy Selected as 2021 S&P Global Platts Global Energy Awards Finalist
Development of unique 400 Megawatt-hour battery energy storage project positions Company for Excellence in Power Award
DURHAM, NC (October 20, 2021) – Strata Clean Energy (“Strata” or “Company”) has been named a finalist in the 23rd annual S&P Global Platts Global Energy Awards. The 2021 Finalists were announced by program host S&P Global Platts, the leading global provider of energy and commodities information and spot market benchmarks.
“It’s an honor to be selected as a finalist for the Award of Excellence in Power for developing the innovative Ventura Energy Storage, a 400-megawatt hour battery energy storage project near Oxnard, CA,” said Joshua Rogol, Chief Development Officer at Strata Clean Energy. “This paradigm-shifting battery energy storage project proved that utilities can transition away from natural gas power plants without compromising reliability or increasing costs to ratepayers.”
Strata worked closely with the local community to develop Ventura Energy Storage – now known as Saticoy – and is grateful to the many stakeholders who worked tirelessly to make the project a reality. As one of the largest operating battery projects in the world, the project provides on-demand power to nearly 100,000 Southern California Edison customers via a twenty-year purchase and sale agreement. The project is now owned by Capital Dynamics, an independent global private asset management firm, and S&B USA Energy. Arevon Energy, Inc. oversaw construction and provides asset management services to the project.
Jenny Salinas, Vice President, Marketing, S&P Global Platts commented, “This year’s complement of 196 finalists truly indicates the outstanding innovation and supreme leadership occurring in so many sectors across our industries. Companies are tackling critical issues such as emissions control, digitization, investment to improve the quality of life, and so much more. We are proud to honor these individuals and companies on their achievements.”
