New Battery Project to Power Ohio Data Centers

Eolian is building a new battery storage site in Licking County. The project is located near several large data centers east of Columbus. It will store over one gigawatt hour of electricity to help keep the power grid stable.

This facility will hold enough energy to run for more than five hours at full output. It connects directly to a critical substation that serves the local industrial corridor. This ensures the area has a reliable backup for its high energy demands.

The project has already been approved to supply power to the regional grid starting in the coming years. It marks a big step forward for energy storage in Ohio. The site will help manage the growing demand for electricity in the region.
