Burlington City Council approved a battery storage system for McNeil Generating Station, a municipally-owned coal plant transitioning to natural gas. The storage system will improve grid stability and enable the plant to operate more flexibly alongside renewable energy sources.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Climate Tech.

If you sell battery management software, thermal systems, or grid control platforms, municipal utilities are now deploying at scale - and they move slowly, so a contract signed today funds you for three years. This is the customer type that stays once you're in.
