About us
Hydrostor is a leading developer and operator of long-duration energy storage systems. Hydrostor leverages a proven technology solution for delivering long-duration energy storage (eight hours or more) to power grids around the world. Hydrostor’s technology uses compressed air and water to store energy. This patented technology allows grid operators to draw on clean energy, even when there is no sun to fuel solar panels and no wind to generate energy from turbines. Hydrostor has a successful utility scale facility commercially contracted to the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO) located in Goderich, Ontario, and two advanced projects under development in Kern County, California and New South Wales, Australia. Hydrostor has an extensive early-stage pipeline of projects in North America, Australia and Europe. Founded in 2010 and with headquarters in Toronto, Canada and offices in Melbourne, Australia and Sacramento, USA, Hydrostor is backed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, the Canada Pension Plan (CPP) and other forward-thinking institutional investors, providing financial security to commit to top-tier energy projects.

Yesterday, Scott Bolton spoke at the inaugural American Clean Power Association (ACP) RECHARGE conference in Portland, Oregon, where he discussed the importance of 8+ hour duration storage, supply chain availability, and the policy environment that is needed for large scale adoption. As electricity grids around the world transition to intermittent renewable energy, building diverse energy storage technologies that ensure reliability and offer distinct characteristics is crucial. Scott emphasized the importance of non-lithium solutions and the mission behind Hydrostor’s DNA, deploying highly-scalable LDES projects globally that repurpose existing workforces and supply chains for a cleaner, safer future. Thanks for an engaging session that was moderated by Kate Howling, P.E. (U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and joined by panelists RJ Johnson (Form Energy), and Mimi Walters (EOS).

We had a great session yesterday at the Reuters Global Energy Transition Conference, where our CEO Curtis VanWalleghem joined Owen Rolt for a fireside chat to discuss the future of energy storage amidst growing electricity demand and decarbonization goals. Curt emphasized the critical need for Long Duration Energy Storage (LDES) to ensure grid reliability, as more intermittent renewable generation comes online and fossil fuel generation is retired, providing details on Hydrostor’s advanced projects and our global pipeline. Thank you to everyone who joined! #EnergyTransition #LDES #RenewableEnergy #Decarbonization #CleanEnergy

Achieving net-zero by 2050 hinges on renewables capacity tripling between now and the end of the decade. Long duration energy storage (LDES) is key to making this possible. Catch our Senior Vice President of Engineering Andrew McGillis at the ASME (The American Society of Mechanical Engineers) Turbo Expo in London from June 24 - 28, as he discusses the integration of #LDES into industrial and grid systems. Additionally, our EVP of Global Policy & Regulatory Affairs Scott Bolton will be at the American Clean Power Association (ACP) Recharge Conference in Portland from June 26 – 28 as he explores #LDES commercialization and supply chain development. We'll also be exhibiting at ACP Recharge: send us a message to connect! We look forward to engaging with industry professionals and driving the future of sustainable energy. 🌍💡 #EnergyStorage #LDES #ASMETurboExpo #ACPRecharge #SustainableEnergy

We are pleased that New York Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Department of Public Service Commission have approved the Energy Storage Roadmap which includes a long duration energy storage (LDES) carveout for 8-hour storage. The Roadmap estimates that over 4 GW of 8-hour LDES will need to be deployed by 2035 and 6.8 GW by 2050 in New York. “With more renewable generation than any other state on the east coast, deep duration storage is only going to become more critical to keeping the lights on as New York continues to work towards its decarbonization goals. New York has recognized that 8+ hour storage is needed to move the energy transition forward while maintaining the reliability of the grid, and we're confident that other states will follow" said Jordan Cole, Chief Commercial Officer at Hydrostor. We look forward to working with NYSERDA on its implementation plan and achieving 4 GW of #LDES in service by 2035. Read pv magazine USA’s article on this exciting development.
