Balanced Rock Power Accelerates a Sustainable Future with Landmark Project Wins

Business Wire3 days ago

MOAB, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Balanced Rock Power (BRP), a leader in solar and energy storage development dedicated to delivering clean energy across America, is proud to announce significant progress and momentum in its renewable energy projects.
A key highlight is BRP's development and sale of the Two Brothers Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project, marking the sale of BRP's third BESS project sited in Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT).
Alongside the success of the 150MW Two Brothers project, BRP has continued to demonstrate project development excellence with the additional sales of 2,625 MW of Solar and BESS projects located in Arizona, California and Texas in 2024 and 2025.
'Our recent project sale closings underscore our proven expertise in large-scale solar and energy storage solutions, positioning us at the forefront of the transition to clean, reliable and affordable energy,' said John Knight, CEO of Balanced Rock Power. 'With a dedicated team and innovative strategies, we're committed to expanding our portfolio and accelerating the shift toward a more sustainable and resilient energy landscape.'
BRP's ERCOT investment thesis focuses on targeted load pockets within Houston and South zones, known for persistent congestion and volatility, alongside rising load demands. Beginning in Q1 2022, BRP's dedicated development teams systematically screened hundreds of substations throughout South Texas to identify high-potential nodes and land parcels, setting the foundation for successful project siting.
Situated along the Texas Gulf Coast — an area characterized by chronic transmission challenges — Two Brothers was strategically located in a region where traditional fixes fall short in alleviating congestion, thereby safeguarding long-term revenue streams. Despite an interconnection queue saturated with ERCOT BESS projects, Two Brothers garnered investor interest due to its thoughtful siting, long-term economic advantages, and a clear path to project completion — supported by an executed interconnection agreement and long-lead equipment procurement.
The project achieved critical milestones, including procurement of HV breakers and GSUs, ensuring it can meet the COD outlined under its signed SGIA. Sold to a private equity-backed storage IPP in Q2 2025, the project underscores BRP's ability to efficiently develop and execute large-scale energy storage solutions.
Balanced Rock Power remains committed to expanding its portfolio of clean energy assets, leveraging its development expertise, strategic siting, and innovative transaction strategies to drive sustainable growth and energy transition.

Sigenergy's 20 MWh Modular C&I Solution Defines the Next Generation of Energy Storage

BURGAS, Bulgaria, June 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Sigenergy brought together nearly 300 global energy professionals in Burgas to explore the future of commercial and industrial (C&I) energy storage. A key highlight of the event was a visit to a landmark 20 MWh project in Malko Tarnovo, powered by Sigenergy's modular C&I battery energy storage system (BESS). The project highlights the scalability and real-world impact of next-generation storage technology. In partnership with Trakia MT Ltd., a leading Bulgarian solar company, the system is installed on a solar farm and features 90 Sigenergy C&I hybrid inverters combined with the SigenStack modular storage solution. Tony Xu, Founder and CEO of Sigenergy, commented: "Sigenergy's mission is to accelerate the global transition to clean energy with innovative and scalable storage solutions. This project exemplifies how advanced battery systems can drive business growth and decarbonization across industries." Modularity Transforming C&I Energy Storage SigenStack introduces a truly modular approach to C&I energy storage—replacing bulky containerized systems with stackable 12 kWh battery packs. With plug-and-play connectors and tool-free installation, the system eliminates complex wiring, the need for cranes, and heavy machinery. Thanks to this design, the entire 20 MWh system was installed in just 10 days and fully commissioned within 2 days. Galina Peycheva-Miteva, Owner of Trakia MT Ltd., noted: "The installation was incredibly smooth—more like assembling building blocks than deploying industrial infrastructure. This modular design is a game-changer for the C&I energy storage sector." Safety Engineered at the Pack Level Sigenergy's C&I BESS solutions set new benchmarks for system safety. At the heart of this innovation is the SigenStack system, engineered with safety at every level. Each 12 kWh battery pack features six layers of protection: temperature sensors, internal fire suppression units, aerogel insulation, decompression valves, high-temperature-resistant insulation pads, and smoke detectors. This configuration enables early detection of thermal runaway at the pack level and initiates a rapid, localized response within seconds. In contrast, conventional cabinet-style systems typically lack compartmentalization and may take over a minute to react, increasing the risk of fire propagation. By isolating incidents at the module level, SigenStack significantly enhances system reliability and operational safety. Its advanced inverter platform includes ultra-fast 500 ms anti-backflow protection and long-range arc fault circuit interrupter (AFCI) technology capable of detecting faults up to 500 meters. To further validate its safety performance, Sigenergy partnered with global assurance provider Intertek to publish a C&I Safety White Paper. The results confirm full compliance with UL 9540A and IEC 62619, structural stability under extreme testing, and sustained operational efficiency above 95%. Resilience Made for Zero Maintenance Built on robust safety and modular design, Sigenergy's C&I BESS supports 24/7 autonomous operation. With an IP66 rating for dust and water resistance, it delivers reliable performance across diverse environmental conditions. Conventional cabinet-style systems, however, often contain more vulnerable components and demand monthly inspections, half-year part replacements, and comprehensive annual maintenance. Real-time monitoring via a cloud-based platform provides full visibility into system status, energy throughput, and alarms, significantly reducing the need for on-site inspections. Maintenance is also streamlined: faulty battery packs can be replaced individually within two hours, without full system diagnostics or on-site technician intervention. This reduces downtime, simplifies spare parts logistics, and minimizes operational costs. The successful delivery of this project demonstrates Sigenergy's excellence in installation speed, safety, operational reliability, and smart management. Looking ahead, Sigenergy is committed to expanding its global footprint, driving the adoption of safer, more efficient, and sustainable energy solutions worldwide.
