Georgia Power Completes 49.5 MW Moody Battery Facility to Boost Storage and Solar Integration
Georgia Power has completed construction of the 49.5 MW / 198 MWh Moody Battery Facility located outside Valdosta, Georgia. The project adds to the utility’s growing battery storage portfolio as it manages increasing solar penetration on its system and addresses peak demand requirements. The four-hour duration configuration aligns with Georgia Power’s resource planning and IRP objectives, which emphasize storage as a cost-effective alternative to peaker plants. Completion of the Moody facility demonstrates the utility’s execution capability in delivering regulated storage assets and provides operational experience that will inform future procurement rounds. The project will participate in Georgia Power’s resource adequacy and ancillary service markets.
