Detroit Edison (DTE) will design, build, and demonstrate Community Energy Storage (CES) systems in their service territory. The CES is designed to improve electricity service to customers whose circuits are often heavily loaded and would benefit from the power conditioning advantages provided from a CES. The performance data of the CES units and control systems will be analyzed under real-world operating conditions to standardize design, installation, and use across the U.S.
