  "textContent": "Battery energy storage systems (BESS) are an important tool to support grid reliability and allow better integration of California’s abundant renewable energy sources into the electricity grid.\n\nHowever, consumption of electricity is notoriously unstable, peaking in the mornings and evenings when residential and industrial demand surges. Historically, grid operators relied on gas peaker plants as the primary method for meeting surge demand on the grid.\n\n**How can BESS help shift the balance in clean power generation, pushing gas-fired peaker plant generation out of the mix?**\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
