‘Could batteries replace a proposed peaker plant in Massachusetts?’
by Sarah Shemkus, Energy News Network June 2, 2021 Environmental activists and local residents in Massachusetts are urging the group behind a planned natural gas power plant to consider whether battery storage could do the job with fewer climate concerns. … Continue reading
