About the Project

Tara BESS, formerly Grey Owl Storage, is a 400-megawatt (MW), 1600-megawatt hour (MWh) battery energy storage system (BESS) proposed for development in the Municipality of Arran-Elderslie.

Neoen, the developer, was awarded a 20-year energy storage contract for the project by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) in May 2024, through IESO’s long-term RFP procurement.

Tara BESS will store and discharge electricity to-and-from the electrical grid, helping Ontario meet its growing electricity needs.
