About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

GridStor Commences Construction on Galveston County Battery Energy Storage Project

220 MW Texas facility expected to begin operation in summer 2025

GridStor, a developer and operator of utility-scale battery energy storage systems, announced today that construction is underway for its 220 MW, 440 MWh battery facility in Galveston County, Texas. The Hidden Lakes Reliability Project (formerly called Evelyn Energy Storage) is expected to begin operations in the summer of 2025.

“Battery energy storage is a safe, reliable solution to meeting fast-growing demands for power in the greater Houston area,” said Chris Taylor, CEO of GridStor. “Hidden Lakes will bolster the electric supply in Texas, providing energy that stabilizes the power grid and contributes to meeting the hours of greatest demand each day. We are eager to provide a near-term solution to support the region's growth while new power sources and transmission infrastructure are built over the longer term.”

GridStor’s Hidden Lakes project is being built near an existing substation of the same name, owned by Texas New Mexico Power (TNMP). Site preparation and foundations placement is now underway on the 15-acre site, with the installation of battery enclosures and supporting equipment scheduled for early 2025. GridStor has collaborated closely with local and regional officials to ensure the facility meets all requirements and standards for safe and effective construction and operations.

The Hidden Lakes project will contribute tens of millions of dollars to the county in estimated sales and use tax revenue, including property taxes benefiting Galveston County and Dickinson Independent School District. It will employ up to 100 full-time skilled tradespeople and apprentices during construction.

Once operating, the Hidden Lakes project will increase the resilience of the Texas electric grid, helping ensure reliable power supply during disturbances and peak hours via participation in the ERCOT electricity market.

GridStor develops and operates battery facilities directly integrated with American power infrastructure, storing electricity to deliver when it is most needed. GridStor is backed by Goldman Sachs Asset Management and comprises a team of seasoned energy professionals with a record of past accomplishments in energy storage and clean energy project acquisition, development, finance and operations. GridStor’s target markets include regions seeing higher energy demand and volatility from unpredictable weather events such as extreme heat, and areas at risk of increasing grid instability due to retirements of older and aging grid infrastructure and power plants.
