Pillsbury Represents Mitsubishi Hitachi in Joint Agreement to Construct Three Energy Storage Projects in Texas

Working with Powin Energy and Key Capture Energy, MHPS will build three utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) based on lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries totaling 200 megawatts. MHPS is using a ‘custom solution’ to provide turnkey engineering, procurement and construction and long-term service support for all direct current equipment, power conversion systems and high voltage substations related to the projects.

These BESS projects continue Mitsubishi’s history of strategic partnerships and expand MHPS’s presence in the ERCOT while fortifying its technology-driven “Change in Power” for clean energy solutions. The Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Group Companies have been leading the investment in lower carbon intensive energy technology in the state of Texas which includes 2 gigawatts (GW) of on-shore wind generation, 1.3 GW of natural gas generation and the world’s largest post-combustion carbon dioxide capture project.

Along with Dajani, Tsveklova and Arora-Cox, the Pillsbury team includes Jorge Medina, Olivia Lugar, Alexandra Murphy and senior law clerk Danielle Unterschutz.
