The Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) enables Ottawa to integrate six newly approved solar projects and reduce increasing reliance on gas-fired electricity during peak hours. . In 2025, the City of Ottawa established official plan and zoning provisions for battery energy storage uses in accordance with new Official Plan policy. BESS is an emerging technology using batteries and associated equipment to store excess energy from the electrical grid, which can then discharge. . Ottawa city council has thrown its support behind a battery facility in rural west Ottawa, after rural councillors rebuffed the same appeal last week. Just six days earlier, the city's Agriculture and Rural Affairs Committee. . Brookfield Renewable Power Inc.
