On August 1, 2025, the ribbon cutting held at esVolta’s Anole battery energy storage system (BESS) facility was featured in local NBC affiliate, NBC5 Dallas-Fort Worth.
The article highlighted the facility, and esVolta’s 3-site BESS portfolio connected to the ERCOT grid, as an example of a local solution to increasing demand for power-hungry data centers, particularly during the summer when demand is at its peak.
The article quoted esVolta CEO Randolph Mann:
“Texas is at the forefront of the energy transition, and large-scale battery storage is playing a critical role in ensuring a reliable and resilient grid,” said Randolph Mann, Chief Executive Officer of esVolta. “By bringing these three projects online ahead of peak summer demand, we are helping to stabilize the ERCOT grid and meet the state’s growing demand for electricity. Our commitment to deploying cutting-edge technology and driving innovation underscores esVolta’s dedication to delivering real solutions for Texas’s growing energy needs.”
