Iron Belt Energy Storage is a proposed 401.9 MW battery storage project located in Borden County, Texas. The project, developed by Iron Belt Energy Storage Project, LLC, is interconnected within the ERCOT region under queue ID ERCOT-25INR0208. The project entered the queue on January 3, 2023, with a proposed commercial operation date of July 31, 2027. The Interconnection Agreement (IA) has been executed as of January 16, 2023.
The proposed project is linked to the existing Iron Belt operating plant (EIA ID 67059). Recent news coverage indicates industry interest in the development.
