HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Consolidated Asset Management Services (CAMS), an industry leading asset management and operations and maintenance (O&M) services provider, announced today that it has been awarded two contracts by Broad Reach Power (Broad Reach) to provide O&M services at two battery energy storage sites.
Located in Texas, the projects CAMS will support include 100 megawatts (MW) at Bat Cave Energy Storage in Mason County and an additional 100 MW at North Fork Energy Storage in Williamson County.
The addition of the projects solidifies CAMS as one of the largest third-party battery O&M providers in the country, now delivering O&M at 12 sites totaling 300 MW.
“We are excited to expand our partnership with Broad Reach by supporting Bat Cave and North Fork which are among the most advanced and largest energy storage projects in North America,” said Brian Ivany, Co-President of CAMS Renewable Services. “These projects will provide greater reliability to the grid which continues to experience increased volatility from renewable penetration and severe weather events.”
CAMS was named the O&M operator following a competitive bidding process.
“This partnership is a fantastic recognition of the strength of CAMS’ service offering and further grows our renewables footprint,” said Rick Knauth, Co-President of CAMS Renewable Services. “It also supports our commitment to the transition of energy generation toward renewable sources and ESG-focused business practices.”
“As our Broad Reach portfolio of standalone energy storage assets continues to grow in megawatt scale, we look forward to furthering our relationship with CAMS to support the operational performance, reliability and safety of our critical infrastructure,” said Doug Moorehead, Managing Partner & Chief Technology Officer of Broad Reach Power.
