CONNEXUS OPENS SOLAR-PLUS STORAGE FACILITIES

(RAMSEY) – Conexxus Energy hosted a “Celebrate The Sun” event on Thursday, Oct. 25 to mark the opening of a one-of-a-kind energy storage facilities in Ramsey and Athens Township that harnesses the power of the sun and large-scale battery storage to provide more energy to its customer at peak demand times.
According to a company press release, the two sites will add 10 megawatts of renewable energy to the provider’s overall energy supply.
In that release, CEO Greg Ridderbusch said customers consistently ask for more renewable energy sources with lower costs.
“Most solar energy is produced when there is lower demand and the price is lower. We will discharge stored solar energy during peak hours when energy costs are the highest.”
According to the company, the Ramsey site uses nearly 14,000 Canadian Solar panels over 18 acres and can currently output 3.4 megawatts. The Athens site uses more than 27,000 JA Solar panels over 36 acres to put out 6.6 megawatts. Together the two sites already provide energy to close to 2,000 homes.
“Conexxus is leading the way among all the utilities in the northern U.S. and the midwestern U.S. on solar and storage,” said Michael Noble, CEO of Fresh Energy.
Connexus is the largest member-owned utility in Minnesota. It provides electricity to 132,000 homes and businesses across Anoka, Chisago, Hennepin, Isanti, Ramsey, Sherburne, and Washington Counties.
