The Holtville energy storage plant is located in Imperial County, California. The facility has a total capacity of 30 MW and began operating in 2024. It is owned and operated by Greenbacker Renewable Energy Corporation. The plant utilizes batteries as its primary fuel source and is comprised of one generator.
The Holtville plant uses lithium-ion batteries (LIB) to provide 127 MWh of energy storage, equivalent to a duration of approximately 4.23 hours. The plant operates within the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) balancing authority and the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) NERC region. Holtville is ranked as the 173rd largest power plant in California out of 300, and 656th nationally out of 1205.

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.
