LG Energy has been confirmed to supply batteries for Google's largest solar and energy storage project, marking a significant expansion in energy infrastructure related to the rising power demands of AI data centers. This project, known as the Steel River Energy Center, is a collaboration between Google and Cypress Creek Energy in Arkansas.
The initial phase of the project will feature 1.6 gigawatts (GW) of solar power generation capacity and approximately 2 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of battery storage, with plans to expand to 2.5 GW of solar and 2.9 GWh of storage by 2029. LG Energy is expected to provide its JF2 DC Link system, utilizing lithium iron phosphate battery technology, with the order valued at several hundred billion Korean won.
As the demand for renewable energy solutions grows, this partnership highlights the increasing importance of energy storage systems in supporting sustainable infrastructure. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
