Bissell Solar and Battery Generator, located in Kent County, Michigan, is a hybrid power plant combining solar photovoltaic generation with battery energy storage. The plant has a total capacity of 1.1 MW and commenced operations in 2021. It is owned and operated by Consumers Energy Co. (MI). The facility consists of two generators utilizing both solar and battery technologies, with the primary fuel source designated as MWH. Bissell ranks 5th out of 6 similar plants in Michigan and 1187th nationally out of 1205.
The plant's battery energy storage system (BESS) has a capacity of 0.5 MWh and a duration of 1.67 hours, employing lithium-ion battery chemistry (LIB). The solar array uses a fixed tilt tracking system. In its latest year of operation, the plant generated 432 MWh, resulting in a capacity factor of 4.5%. Bissell Solar and Battery Generator operates within the Midcontinent Independent Transmission System Operator, Inc. (MISO) balancing authority and the ReliabilityFirst Corporation (RFC) NERC region.

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.
