Westchester Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) Conference
As New York and Westchester pursue the interrelated goals of a clean, affordable, and reliable power grid, many localities are wrestling with technical, legal, planning, and safety questions about Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS.) Westchester County Government recognizes the importance of BESS to regional and statewide energy goals and is, therefore, committed to sharing information and best practices that might benefit local leaders.
