Entered ERCOT interconnection queue in Facility Study phase
The Metro BESS project is a proposed 200.71 MW hybrid battery energy storage project located in Caldwell County, Texas. The project, developed by Metro BESS LLC, consists of battery storage and other unspecified technologies. It is currently active in the ERCOT interconnection queue as entry ERCOT-27INR0478, with a queue entry date of February 25, 2025, and a proposed commercial operation date of December 7, 2030.
The project is planned to interconnect at the 138 kV LYTTON8 (9075) point of interconnection. The Metro BESS project has been the subject of recent news coverage related to industry and development.
