Inrecentweeks,Peregrine Energy Solutions, the company proposing the battery storage facility in Harper, has taken out full page ads in the Fredericksburg Standard trying to convince readers that the electrical system in the Harper area is insufficiently supplied with electrical energy. According to Peregrine’s study, the Harper substation was identified as one of the most vulnerable substation out of 60,000 (U.S.) substations. Also, the “area suffers from heavy grid congestion with inefficient power movement.” A reader of the ad might get the impression that the grid in the Harper area is nearing imminent collapse.
