Connecticut’s General Assembly is considering legislation to deploy 1,000 MW of energy storage by 2030, allowing for competitive procurements that would include stand-alone energy storage projects or projects paired with renewable energy resources like wind and solar.

While EDP Renewables has been a major player in the wind space since 2007, the company has recently begun making moves to expand its footprint, particularly in solar. Its recent acquisition of an 85 percent stake in C2 Omega's Distributed Solar platform continues the expansion narrative.
