The state Public Service Commission approved Georgia Power’s plan to build battery energy storage systems at four locations, including Floyd County. This plan will add 500 megawatts of generating capacity, enough to power 750 homes with one megawatt. One system in Floyd County will be on the site of decommissioned Plant Hammond. The Tesla Megapack 2 Xl installed there is expected to provide 57. 5 megawatts. These battery systems store energy generated from solar sources and will provide power during high demand. Georgia Power will also build facilities near Robins and Moody Air Force Bases and submit quarterly reports on progress.
