Located in Maverick County, Texas, Fort Duncan Battery Storage reached commercial operation in June 2025. The company previously announced that it had secured $183 million in project financing and tax equity for the storage facility.
Fort Duncan Storage operates on a merchant basis and has established itself as a top-performing standalone battery energy storage system in the ERCOT South load zone, providing critical grid support and reliability services to the South Texas region. Fort Duncan Storage’s strong performance track record is backed by battery energy storage systems supplied by Canadian Solar’s e-STORAGE division.
Hunt Energy Network is an affiliate of one of the largest privately held energy companies in the United States with a large, international, and diversified presence. It started growing its battery storage portfolio four years ago and, with the purchase of Fort Duncan, now owns and operates 420 MW of battery storage facilities.
Pat Wood III, Executive Chairman of Hunt Energy Network, said, “We are fully committed to dramatically growing our presence within ERCOT, and this acquisition is a strong step towards achieving that goal. We appreciate the collaboration with Recurrent on this transaction, and we look forward to operating this asset for many years.”
Ismael Guerrero, CEO of Recurrent Energy, added, “We are very pleased to complete the sale of Fort Duncan Storage to Hunt Energy Network. The project has demonstrated exceptional performance and has become a reliable and responsive asset for the Texas grid. This transaction is an important milestone in our strategic initiative to selectively monetize projects to support our continued growth.”
