“Grid” and “battery” don’t belong in the same sentence.

They are building a battery energy storage system (BESS) five miles from my house. It supposedly will charge off-peak and supply electricity during peak hours. Of course, NY would not need these if they didn't shut down Indian Point and turn off the Natural gas.

What is a grid battery?   Years ago we sold power back to the power company.   They even provided a telemetry device where they could crank up our generators in peak demand times.   They never thought of draining our battery plants which would be really stupid.

Is the TVA grid Racoon Mountain pumped storage facility that stores the surplus generated by the Sequoyah Nuclear plant a battery?
