Community Benefits

The Corazon Energy Storage facility will be a good neighbor and a valuable asset to the surrounding community for decades to come. The project will provide necessary capacity to the region with no air polluting emissions. As a static facility with insignificant traffic and minimal municipal services, the Corazon facility will have little impact on neighbors. Significant project benefits to the community include:

  • High-paying construction jobs

  • Enhanced resiliency from a new, state-of-the-art power resource  

  • Significant capital investment in the community

  • State and local tax revenue
