SAN RAFAEL and CONCORD, Calif.<\/strong> \u2014 Two critical community facilities in Marin County have taken major steps to safeguard residents during power outages, reduce costs, and ease strain on the electric grid.<\/strong><\/p>

The Dance Palace Community and Cultural Center<\/a> in Point Reyes Station and the St. Vincent de Paul Society of Marin County<\/a> in San Rafael have each installed new battery storage systems that provide clean backup power, lower energy costs, and support a healthier, more reliable grid.<\/strong> Both projects were completed with zero out-of-pocket costs from the organizations through $150,000 in funding from MCE\u2019s Energy Storage Program and the Marin Community Foundation.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The St. Vincent de Paul Society of Marin County in San Rafael will now be able to maintain operations and support the thousands of people it serves each year even during power outages with its new 27 kilowatt-hour battery storage system. The project was also fully funded with more than $55,000 in MCE and Marin Community Foundation funding and was installed by local nonprofit GRID Alternatives, which supports a just energy transition by providing job-training to the local workforce. MCF provided additional support with a bridge loan to GRID Alternatives<\/a> so the project can access reimbursable federal incentives.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

These projects bring benefits beyond emergency preparedness. Each day, the batteries charge using onsite solar energy. In the evening, when electricity is most expensive and the grid is most strained, the facilities draw from their batteries. With battery storage, these facilities can reduce electricity usage from the grid during peak energy hours, reducing costs and greenhouse gas emissions.<\/strong><\/p>

Other projects co-funded by MCE and Marin Community Foundation include the San Francisco-Marin Food Bank\u2019s San Rafael facility, Marin Community Clinics\u2019 Novato campus, Bolinas Community Center<\/a>, Sage Lane Affordable Senior Housing<\/a>, Stinson Beach Firehouse Protection District, and Stinson Beach Community Center. These installations build on a growing network of resilience projects<\/a> across MCE\u2019s four-county service area that have added battery storage to support essential services.<\/p>
