California Community Choice Aggregator (CCA) Clean Power Alliance (CPA) last week (8 December 2025) moved one step closer to executing agreements for offtake with two companies developing innovative thermal battery storage projects.
The two separate agreements, which are a result of the CCA’s “Innovation Solicitation,” were discussed during CPA’s most recent Energy Planning and Resources Committee meeting.
CEO of CPA, Ted Bardacke, described the solicitation as a way of finding out what the “next big thing is” within the energy storage space, whilst also enhancing the CCA’s portfolio of assets in the future.
