The Captiva Energy Storage project is a proposed 256.88 MW battery storage project located in Orange County, California. The project is being developed within the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) region and is interconnected with San Diego Gas & Electric (SDGE) at the Trabuco - Capistrano 138 kV Line. It entered the CAISO queue as queue ID CAISO-1806 on April 15, 2020, with a proposed commercial operation date of June 1, 2028.
The project's Interconnection Agreement (IA) was executed on May 18, 2022. The project has appeared in recent news coverage.
