Peak Power commissions 3.6 MW battery storage and six Level 2 chargers at Vuteq Canada Woodstock plant
By Eve
Peak Power has brought a 3.6 MW / 7.2 MWh lithium ion battery energy storage system into commercial operation at Vuteq Canada's manufacturing facility in Woodstock, Ontario, alongside six Level 2 EV chargers installed through Canada's Zero Emission Vehicle Infrastructure Program. The battery system, owned by Madison Energy Infrastructure and operated by Peak Power, supports industrial energy cost savings, demand response participation, and grid reliability. The project accompanies a nearly $40 million facility expansion backed by $5 million in provincial funding, creating 145 new jobs.
Why it matters: The integration of workplace charging with behind the meter battery storage at an expanding industrial site demonstrates how manufacturers can bundle EV infrastructure with energy management systems to control costs and support grid services. The ZEVIP funded chargers provide a procurement model for workplace charging rollouts tied to facility capital projects in Canada.
