Ottawa BESS 2 is a proposed up to 75 Mega-Watt (“MW”) lithium-ion Battery Energy Storage System (“BESS”) that will be located at 2393 8th Line Road, Ottawa, ON, K0A 2P0. The Project will be submitted to the Independent Electricity System Operator's (“IESO”) Request for Proposals under the Long-Term 1 Procurement.
Yes, there are two transmission scale BESS projects proposed in rural west Ottawa. One in West Carleton-March (Ward 5) and the other is in Rideau-Jock (Ward 21). Are there land use impacts associated with BESS? There are different types and sizes of BESS.
Adding a new Section 91-A – Accessory Battery Energy Storage System to permit BESS as an accessory use in all zones except Environmental Protection (EP), Mineral Extraction (ME) or Mineral Reserve (MR) and outside of the flood plain overlay or Conservation Authority Regulated Limits. An accessory use supports a permitted use in a secondary way;
BESS facilities can be used to provide backup power to individual sites or transmission scale projects built to support the provincial grid. The battery storage units associated with a BESS facility are subject to Planning Act requirements.
