Loop 463 is a 9.9 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) located in Victoria County, Texas. The plant began operating in 2021 and is owned by ENGIE, a company based in France. Engie North America is the listed operator per EIA data. The facility utilizes lithium-ion batteries (LIB) and has a storage capacity of 9.9 MWh, providing a duration of 1 hour at full output. The plant's primary fuel type is listed as 'MWH' reflecting its role as a storage facility rather than a generator.
Loop 463 operates within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) balancing authority. In terms of size, Loop 463 is ranked 291 out of 313 power plants in Texas, and 837 out of 1205 nationally. The plant has one generator and is part of the Texas Reliability Entity (TRE) NERC region.

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.
