Ontario and the federal government are investing in a project they say will be Canada’s largest battery storage facility in Six Nations of the Grand River.

Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland says Ottawa is contributing an additional $50 million into the Oneida Energy storage project in Ohsweken, Ont.

Premier Doug Ford says the province has told the Independent Electricity System Operator to accept a 20-year deal with the project as part of its goal for more clean energy supply.

Ford says the initiative will draw and store electricity off-peak when power demand is low and return it when demand rises.

The project is set to begin operating in 2025 and will more than double the amount of clean energy storage.

Six Nations says they have invested in the project, which will provide economic returns and 97 per cent of the construction workforce to build it.
