THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
The county board will discuss and possibly approve a revised Energy Storage Systems Ordinance. This is a policy move that will shape how future battery and storage projects are sited, reviewed, and permitted. Developers, engineers, and consultants working on storage projects should track the new rules and may be able to help applicants navigate permitting or support the county with studies and technical review.
Changes may affect utility-scale and commercial storage projects and associated permitting timelines.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
