Mill Stone Energy Center

The Mill Stone Energy Center is a proposed 150 megawatt / 600 megawatt-hour energy storage project that will interconnect to an existing 230kV transmission line connects into the Fentress Substation. At peak output, this project will discharge the electricity necessary to power nearly 112,500 homes for a 4-hour period.

The project will sit on approximately 112 acres – most of which will remain undeveloped. It will be approximately two miles south of the Fentress Substation on the western side of Centerville Turnpike South.

Project at a Glance

Electrical Grid & Economic Impact: Enhances the reliability and resiliency of the regional electrical grid, while contributing to the county’s tax base and supporting businesses in the surrounding area.

Environmental Impact: We recognize the community wants to preserve agricultural land in the area. Approximately 15 acres will be utilized for the project, ensuring the remaining land will not be developed.

Noise: A required comprehensive sound level assessment will be conducted for the proposed project.

Safety

We are introducing state-of-the-art technology to ensure the highest protection standards, as well as taking industry leading steps to ensure the safety of the project, the environment, and the surrounding community. EPE’s safety measures will meet – and even exceed – local, state, and federal safety requirements.

East Point held in-person battery safety training seminar with the City of Chesapeake Fire Department in June of 2025 and will continue to engage with City fire officials to develop a custom emergency response plan.
