CO2 Battery Breakthrough in Arizona

Salt River Project is partnering with Italian energy tech firm Energy Dome to build a groundbreaking 19-megawatt, 10-hour battery system in eastern Arizona — powered by carbon dioxide, not lithium-ion. This move supports SRP’s push for long-duration storage and aligns with their recent Google collaboration to diversify energy storage tech. Energy Dome will own and operate the facility for at least 20 years, giving SRP reliable grid backup without relying on traditional batteries. It’s a major step toward a more resilient, future-proof power grid. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
