Private equity firm Energy Capital Partners acquired Convergent in July, allocating hundreds of millions of dollars for the developer to put to work in energy storage infrastructure.

Shell New Energies partnered with Convergent in a joint venture earlier this year to explore the burgeoning Ontario storage market, making the fossil fuel major both the customer and the financial backer for the projects. The previous entry also serves a large petrochemical facility in Sarnia, part of Ontario's 'Chemical Valley,' but that customer never revealed its identity. The sizing means Convergent did not set another record for largest behind-the-meter storage in North America, but it's tied itself for first place. Convergent also finished a 1-megawatt/1-megawatt-hour battery for a Shell lubricants factory in Brockville. The system will save money for a Shell oil refinery and chemicals plant in Sarnia. The New York-based developer and asset owner confirmed Monday that it has activated another 10-megawatt/20-megawatt-hour battery system at a different industrial facility in Ontario, Canada. Convergent Energy + Power built the largest customer-sited energy storage system in North America in 2018.
