RLC SERVICES





        Energy Storage
        Our energy storage interconnection experience in the Northeast has been steadily
        growing. The market for stand-alone AC-coupled systems and DC-coupled
        array enhancements has grown significantly in the last year and is expected to
        accelerate. We have performed conceptual design studies for projects ranging
        between 1 and 10 MWhr in size. RLC has also completed detailed design and
        construction support activities for several BESS systems. Furthermore, RLC can
        provide our clients with a turnkey solution for their energy storage needs from
        interconnection applications to testing and commissioning of the projects on a
        single site or program-wide scale.
        Software Applications: RLC Engineering personnel are competent and
        knowledgeable users of CYME, Helioscope, PSCAD, PSSe, PVSyst, and SKM.

        Experience
        Jones Street
        RLC served as Owner’s Engineer, and developed the conceptual design of
        interconnections for New England Battery Storage for their Madison Jones
        Street project. The Madison ESS is New England’s first fully integrated front-
        of-the-meter energy storage facility. It is a 4.99 MW/ 10 MWh lithium-ion
        system that participates in the ISO-NE wholesale energy markets, operating
        reserve markets, frequency regulation market, and capacity market. Our
        Engineers also provided site layout and equipment arrangement, cable
        and transformer sizing, and identifying interconnection options, and
        construction support.
        Martha’s Vineyard
        RLC performed design and engineering services for the Martha’s Vineyard
        (MV) ESS project that consists of a 4.9 MW/26.1 MWh Energy Storage
        System at the Oaks Bluff Service Center in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts.
        Engineering services consisted of ground grid design, cable and conduit
        sizing, interconnection relay settings, switchgear specifications and
        alignment, as well as controls and communication wiring. The MV ESS
        is expected to operate in parallel with the existing utilities 22.8  kV
        electrical distribution system but will not operate as an islanded
        resource. The MV BESS output will be automatically controlled
        to support system events and to limit the loading on the existing
        submarine cable load levels. The facility employs Lithium Ion batteries
        with a SMA inverter system.

        Madison Business Park
        RLC served as Owner’s Engineer, and developed the conceptual
        design of interconnections for New England Battery Storage for
        their Madison BTM project. Services also provided were site layout
        and equipment arrangement, cable and transformer sizing, and
        identifying interconnection options. RLC also provided support
        during the construction process of the project.
