FAQs 6

Are Australia's large-scale battery energy storage projects attracting federal support?

The volume of large-scale battery energy storage projects under construction in Australia passed that of solar and wind projects combined in 2023 and the trend has intensified this year, with batteries attracting federal support. As coal-fired power plants are shuttered, developers and suppliers are enjoying a battery bonanza.

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.
