The 300 MW / 30 GWh multi-day storage system from Form Energy will be paired with 1.6 GW of new renewables to facilitate Google’s 24/7 carbon-free energy goals.

Form Energy's iron-air batteries will store wind and solar power to keep the data center running 24/7.

The utility claims the iron-air system will be “the largest battery project by gigawatt-hour energy capacity announced to date in the world” and will provide multi-day storage.

Iron-air batteries can supply a steady supply of energy for 100 hours, far longer than competing batteries for data centers.

An iron-air battery that stores and releases energy through a reversible rusting process has become the first of its kind to connect with a public electricity grid. On 30 July, the startup Ore Energy ...
