Great Lakes Copper Ltd. serves the plumbing, refrigeration, OEM, media, air conditioning and specialty markets with a wide range of products.
Great Lakes Copper located in London, Ontario, partnered with AUX Energy and PowerFlex (EDF Renewables) on a 3MW 4-hour Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). The battery is hosted behind-the-meter at the London, Ontario plant.
The BESS was deployed to reduce Global Adjustment charges, a form of demand charges, and takes advantage of energy arbitrage as a form of further costs savings. The BESS utilizes market services in Ontario to drive more value in the form of Demand Response and Operating Reserve.
