Victoria battery energy storage box custom-made enterprise

Why is Victoria a good place to store batteries?

Victoria is the home of big batteries and has legislated storage targets of at least 2.6 GW by 2030 and 6.3 GW by 2035 to provide crucial support for more renewable capacity. Storage is a vital part of our electricity grid. In the future, much of our energy will be generated closer to where it is used and the way we use it will be more efficient.

What is a battery energy storage system?

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are large devices that can store and release energy on demand to support the delivery of electricity across Victoria. A BESS gathers energy from the electricity network powered by different sources, such as wind and solar, and stores it in rechargeable batteries for later use.

How many large-scale storage systems does Victoria have?

Victoria has 12 commissioned large-scale storage systems and 3 in commissioning – with a total output capacity of 1028 MW and storage capacity of more than 1.7 GWh. Storage capacity = how much total energy is stored in each battery. Output capacity = how much energy a battery can provide at a given time.
