Ameresco, U.S. Army with advanced renewable energy system at Fort Detrick

Ameresco announced the newly completed U.S. Army’s advanced renewable energy system at U.S. Army Installation Fort Detrick in Maryland. This event marks the culmination of efforts to enhance the base’s energy independence, sustainability, and potential for energy resiliency. Ameresco’s energy asset activation is now live and features a 6 MW/6MWh battery energy storage system that integrates seamlessly with an existing 18.6 MW solar energy facility, which has been operational since 2016. This integration not only boosts the facility’s capacity by providing frequency regulation services to the local electric grid but also enhances the overall energy security and sustainability of the installation by improving the power quality and correcting unintended fluctuations in generation.
