We are proud to highlight an article published this week in the The Arizona Republic | azcentral.com | La Voz that features a project at the heart of our mission at Epic Star Energy. Our co-Founder, Kelly Sarber, helped develop a major solar project in Arizona that is demonstrating the real community and economic impact of #CleanEnergy. While working on this project, Kelly brought in Henry Yun, the former President and CEO of 174 Power Global, to construct the project. Henry became our other co-Founder when John Cavalier, a longtime renewable energy leader, approached Kelly and Henry to start a new venture, Epic Star Energy. Within this larger story, the piece also highlights important local leadership, including comments from Supervisor Holly Irwin, who emphasized how meaningful long-term lease revenues are for her rural county. That need for stable economic support is exactly why Kelly structured the project as a public private partnership designed to generate hundreds of millions of dollars in lease payments over the next thirty years. It is a clear example of how clean energy projects can directly benefit the communities that host them. This kind of work shows what is possible when energy developers, local governments and communities come together. It demonstrates that #RenewableEnergy can deliver not just power but also sustainable economic value and resilience for counties that need it most. At Epic Star Energy, we remain committed to building infrastructure that supports clean energy, local empowerment and long-term impact. We believe this Arizona project is just one example of what thoughtful development can achieve and we are excited for more to come. https://lnkd.in/ejkdnpyH

We’re proud to see the US #GridStorage industry hit a major milestone and appreciate how this validates what we’ve believed at Epic Star Energy for years. According to Canary Media, #BatteryStorage developers in 2017 set a bold goal of 35 GW by 2025. That target was not only met but surpassed. As of this July the US crossed 35 GW, and by Q3 2025 surpassed 40 GW. This achievement underscores a foundational truth: large-scale storage is no longer niche or experimental. It is now essential infrastructure. As #GridBatteries move from the margins into the mainstream, they are rapidly becoming second only to solar among gigawatts built per year. For us at Epic Star Energy, this moment is more than a statistic. It is confirmation that flexible, battery-based solutions have arrived. As demand surges from data centers, AI workloads, and broader electrification, our mission to deliver reliable, scalable, and resilient storage solutions has never been more relevant. We see this as a call to action to accelerate deployment, deepen partnerships, and continue to build storage projects that help power the next wave of digital infrastructure growth. The foundation has been laid, and now it is time for execution. Here is to the next wave of energy storage growth. https://lnkd.in/giPg7EGb

A recent McKinsey analysis shows how shifting market dynamics are reshaping revenues for US #EnergyStorage operators, especially in CAISO and ERCOT. Even with declining averages, top-performing batteries continue to outperform by using adaptive, analytics-driven strategies that respond to nodal pricing, congestion and real-time conditions. The report highlights two major opportunities for operators focused on #GridResilience and flexible power: better use of digital and AI-enabled optimization tools, and diversified portfolios across #BESS, #Solar and #Wind to manage volatility and shape costs. At Epic Star Energy, this reflects what we see across the market. The most resilient projects are those designed with smarter analytics, flexible operations and the ability to support growing load from data centers and AI operations. A strong read for anyone tracking the next phase of storage and digital infrastructure growth as we keep positioning our projects to catch the set early and ride the current of clean energy innovation. https://lnkd.in/g5W9zMHR

A new report from the Nicholas Institute finds the U.S. grid has significant untapped capacity to handle new, flexible loads like data centers and industrial operations without requiring major new generation. The study estimates roughly 100 GW of additional large loads could be integrated with only limited curtailment by leveraging flexibility and demand-response programs. At Epic Star Energy, we see this as a reminder that growth and reliability are not opposing forces. Strategic use of #EnergyStorage, flexible load management, and smarter grid planning can expand capacity while keeping systems stable and sustainable. Like reading the rhythm of the surf, the key is knowing when to move and how to stay balanced as new demand rolls in. Read more and download the report here: https://lnkd.in/gsZqFeYj

As federal policymakers move to streamline how large electricity users like #DataCenters and #AI operations connect to the grid, Epic Star Energy understands the critical role that #EnergyStorage plays in enabling that transformation. By increasing grid flexibility and providing firm, reliable power, advanced storage projects can help bring new loads online faster and ensure the 99.999% uptime required for today’s compute-intensive operations. Epic Star Energy’s team has developed some of the largest utility-scale energy storage sites in the U.S. We know success is about catching the right wave of innovation at the right time and storage is the technology that helps keep that momentum going.

According to a recent #WoodMackenzie report, the U.S. #EnergyStorage market hit a new high in Q2 2025 with 5.6 GW installed, led by 4.9 GW of utility-scale projects. This isn’t just growth, it’s momentum. At Epic Star Energy, we see this as the perfect wave to ride: *Timing & Opportunity: Policy, #Capital, and #Technology are aligning, creating the moment to accelerate deployment. *Capital Efficiency & Scale: #UtilityScale dominance shows that speed and scale drive outsized returns. *Innovation Advantage: Control systems, #SiteDesign, and #BatteryTechnology will separate leaders from followers. The ride is just beginning. #Energystorage is fast becoming the backbone of #Decarbonization, #GridFlexibility and #SustainableInvesting. https://lnkd.in/efrDhfs9
