Why is battery storage important in Australia?Battery storage is now key to Australia’s clean energy transition. It stabilizes supply by storing extra renewable energy and delivering it on demand, even when solar or wind output drops. This helps prevent blackouts and ensures steady green energy flow. BESS installations are expected to double by 2027.
How can renewable storage technology transform Australia?Renewable storage technologies have the potential to revolutionise clean and reliable energy access in remote communities, support cost-effective decarbonisation in industry and transform Australia into a green hydrogen export superpower.
How can long-duration energy storage benefit Australia?Seasonal balancing during low-supply periods. By embedding long-duration energy storage into the heart of the grid, Australia can move from variable renewable supply to 24/7 renewable energy on which communities and industries can rely across days, weeks, and seasons. Long-duration energy storage brings clean power closer to the end user.
Will Australia's NEM see a massive increase in battery energy storage capacity?Australia’s NEM will see a massive increase in grid-scale battery energy storage capacity in the next three years. There are 16.8 GW of battery projects that could come online in the National Electricity Market (NEM) by the end of 2027.
Which energy storage technology is best for Australia's energy needs?The CEC said emerging LDES technologies coupled with the energy storage systems in place, would be the best suite to appropriately manage Australia’s needs. In March this year, the ARENA held an Insights Forum which covered energy storage and technologies that can bring system security to the grid.
What is the powering Australia Industry Growth Centre?To equip businesses with the skills and technology they need to locally manufacture renewable energy technologies such as batteries, the government is creating a Powering Australia Industry Growth Centre.
