EIA-923 reports gross generation and net grid exchange for storage plants. Gross generation is shown as a discharge proxy; it is not a cycle count or conventional capacity factor.
2 ERCOT market resources · Battery / storage
Cycles/day is discharged energy vs. usable capacity (~653 MWh). Capacity factor is avg discharge vs. peak.
Observed ERCOT settlement prices at PLATINUM_RN over 365 days (2025-11-02 to 2026-11-01).
The TB1 figure is a price benchmark, not revenue: it values one perfect-foresight cycle per day between the cheapest and dearest hour of each day, gross of round-trip losses, and excludes ancillary services. It describes what this node’s price shape was worth over the window — it is not this asset’s realized capture, and no dispatch is assumed or modelled.
Matched to the latest available ERCOT generation-interconnection queue record. Queue status and completion dates describe the queue record; operating status is verified separately against plant and market registrations.
Portfolio membership follows the latest EIA-860 reporting entity. It does not imply ultimate ownership.
ENGIE North America announced the acquisition of Belltown Power U.S.’s 6 GW portfolio of 33 solar, paired-storage, and standalone-storage development projects. Project-specific consideration was not disclosed, and the transaction announcement did not separately allocate value to Platinum Storage.
