Exelon Corporation's subsidiary, BGE, has submitted a proposal for 29 megawatts (MW) of energy storage as part of Maryland's Next Generation Energy Act and in response to an order by the Maryland Public Service Commission. This marks the first phase of BGE's energy storage deployment under the Act, with an additional 58MW proposal planned by November 2026. The proposed battery storage systems are designed to charge during periods of low demand and discharge during peak times, aiming to improve service reliability for customers in capacity-constrained areas and help prevent outages. BGE has previously completed two battery storage projects in Chesapeake Beach, supporting grid reliability for over 9,000 customers. The energy storage initiative is part of the Public Service Commission's Energy Storage Program, which encourages utilities to explore various deployment models.
