FAQs about Ottawa Wind and Solar Storage
Does Ottawa have a battery energy storage plan?
In 2025, the City of Ottawa established official plan and zoning provisions for battery energy storage uses in accordance with new Official Plan policy. BESS is an emerging technology using batteries and associated equipment to store excess energy from the electrical grid, which can then discharge energy in periods of high demand.
Is Ottawa looking at regulatory changes around battery energy storage facilities?
Ottawa is looking at regulatory changes around these types of facilities. (Ross D. Franklin/The Associated Press) UPDATED: City councillors unanimously approved the new rules for battery energy storage facilities at their meeting on Feb. 12, 2025.
How will a battery storage project benefit Ottawa?
The battery storage project alongside the six solar projects Council supported earlier this fall will reduce the city's reliance on expensive gas-fired electricity during peak demand and strengthen Ottawa's ability to meet its climate and energy commitments.
Can a battery facility be built in Ottawa?
According to the new rules, companies looking to build a battery facility will have to show Ottawa Fire Services (OFS) that effective fire and safety risk management has been incorporated into the design. Companies will be required to install fire prevention and suppression systems, and provide OFS with site-specific training.
