Atrisco Energy Storage is a 300 MW battery energy storage system (BESS) located in Bernalillo County, New Mexico. The facility began operating in 2024 and is owned and operated by Atrisco Energy Storage LLC. It utilizes lithium-ion battery chemistry (LIB) and has a total storage capacity of 1200 MWh, providing a duration of 4 hours. The plant is interconnected within the Public Service Company of New Mexico balancing authority, which falls under the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) NERC region.
Atrisco Energy Storage is the fourth-largest power plant in New Mexico out of 15 total plants, and ranks as the 158th-largest in the United States out of 514. The facility consists of a single generator and its primary fuel is listed as 'MWH', indicating that it draws power from the grid to charge its batteries. The project has been the subject of 10 news articles, with 7 focusing on deals and 3 on industry-related topics.

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.

This plant's balancing authority participates in CAISO's Western Energy Imbalance Market (WEIM). Direct nodal pricing data is not yet available.
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.
