StorageCaliforniaUnited States of America
DATS is a 1 MW storage power plant in California, United States of America. It is operated by Advanced Microgrid Solutions. Based on its capacity (estimated), it can supply roughly 250 homes (estimated). It ranks #9440 of 9,833 United States of America power plants by installed capacity. Commissioned in 2017, it is around 9 years old — relatively modern. As a non-combustion source, it has no direct CO₂ emissions from generation. In context, the national grid averages 384 gCO₂/kWh (43.0% low-carbon) (2025).

This storage plant stores and releases electricity (pumped-hydro or batteries) to balance the grid. It sits in a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Köppen Csa) — Northern Hemisphere, latitude 33.7°N — which shapes how much energy it can produce and how its output varies through the year.
Monthly mean temperature
Heating degree-days here run 69% below the median power plant in this dataset — a proxy for how much extra energy heated equipment must replace through its surfaces in winter.
Climate heat-demand index: 24/100 — this site sits in the bottom third of the power plants we cover by heating degree-days.
In colder climates, uninsulated hot equipment (boilers, turbines, valves, steam lines) loses proportionally more heat to ambient air — exactly the loss Inzonex modular insulation is designed to cut.
