ESS Battery Microgrid: FAQ

Where is ESS Battery Microgrid?
In Kodiak Island County, Alaska (AK). The map on this page is placed at the coordinates EIA files for the plant, which locate the site rather than any individual unit.
How big is ESS Battery Microgrid?
3 MW of nameplate capacity across 1 unit, as of the EIA-860M release for 2026-07.
Who owns ESS Battery Microgrid?
EIA-860M names Kodiak Electric Assn Inc as the reporting entity. That is the operator of record on the survey, which is not always the ultimate owner.
Is this the same as ESS Battery Microgrid LLC?
Probably, but EIA-860M does not say. The survey records a plant name and a reporting entity — Kodiak Electric Assn Inc here — not the project company that holds the asset. Project companies are commonly registered as an LLC carrying the plant's name, so a search for "ESS Battery Microgrid LLC" usually means this site. This page shows only what EIA files, and does not assert a corporate structure it cannot see.
Is ESS Battery Microgrid still running?
EIA-860M files it as "Operating" for 2026-07. Statuses change monthly, and this page follows the monthly release.
