HEBT Irvine 2 is a 5.8 MW battery energy storage system located in Orange County, California. The plant began operating in 2018 and is owned and operated by Electrodes. It consists of two generators utilizing battery technology with lithium-ion (LIB) chemistry. The facility has a total energy storage capacity of 15 MWh, providing a duration of 6 hours at its full power output.
The plant's primary fuel source is electricity (MWH), indicating it charges from the grid. HEBT Irvine 2 operates within the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) balancing authority and the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) NERC region. In terms of size, the facility is ranked 220 out of approximately 300 power plants in California, and 943 out of roughly 1205 plants nationally.

Capacity Factor
Positive values indicate net discharge (generation exceeds station load). Negative values indicate net charging. Pure battery storage plants are typically net negative due to round-trip efficiency losses.

No wholesale contracts disclosed in FERC EQR for this plant.
FERC EQR captures bilateral wholesale energy + capacity contracts ≥$1M/yr filed quarterly by jurisdictional sellers — covers renewable PPAs, thermal energy sales agreements, capacity contracts, and tolling agreements alike. Many plants don't appear: regulated-utility output flows to ratepayers via cost-of-service rather than bilateral contracts; small projects fall below the filing threshold; tax-equity-financed renewables route offtake to investors not utilities; merchant plants sell into ISO clearing markets without bilateral contracts. News-extracted buyer facts (below) may surface contracts disclosed only through announcements.
