flag Ontario’s large battery project met heatwave demand, boosting grid stability and inspiring new Indigenous-led energy initiatives.

flag Ontario’s Oneida Energy Storage Project, Canada’s largest battery facility, has successfully met peak electricity demand during heatwaves, delivering over 1,000 megawatt-hours since its 2023 launch. flag The $700-million, 250-megawatt, four-hour-capacity project near Jarvis has doubled the province’s energy storage and supports grid stability by storing excess nuclear and renewable power. flag Its success has spurred new proposals in Norfolk County, including a 30-megawatt battery farm near Simcoe and a larger 150-megawatt NRStor project, both with Indigenous partnerships. flag Concerns remain over safety and environmental risks, particularly in wellhead protection areas. flag Meanwhile, First Nations in Saskatchewan have gained equal ownership in a major solar farm, reflecting a broader trend of Indigenous-led renewable energy development across Canada.
