Iron Mountain partners with energy storage firm Calibrant to deploy 23MWh BESS unit at New Jersey data center

Energy storage company Calibrant Energy has partnered with data center developer Iron Mountain to deploy a 23MWh on-site battery energy storage system at the latter’s New Jersey data center.

Calibrant will integrate the battery unit with a 7.2MW rooftop solar installation in operation at the facility.

“This is what the future of powering large loads looks like,” said Phil Martin, CEO of Calibrant Energy. “Customers can grow and control costs while strengthening the grid, proving that large power users are part of the energy solution rather than a burden.”
