Milestone for Big Canberra Battery
The ACT Government has reached a major milestone in its work to future-proof Canberra''s energy supply. The development application has been approved to deliver Stream
Installation is underway on behind-the-meter batteries at nine sites. The Big Canberra Battery project will deliver an ecosystem of batteries across the ACT to ensure that our electricity grid remains stable. The Big Canberra Battery project includes the installation of: installation of behind-the-meter batteries at nine government sites.
Battery storage will play an increasing role in Canberra's electricity grid as we move towards electrifying our city and achieving net zero emissions by 2045. Renewable energy such as wind and solar energy make electricity that large-scale batteries can store. Batteries help support the electricity grid when the sun and wind can't.
The Big Canberra Battery will have 500 MWh of capacity, which on a single charge could supply 23,400 households with their daily energy use. Approximately 180–200 jobs will also be created through the project. More batteries for Canberra
The Big Canberra Battery will be capable of delivering 250 MW of power – more than a third of Canberra's peak electricity demand. It will be able to deliver this power for two hours. The Big Canberra Battery will have 500 MWh of capacity, which on a single charge could supply 23,400 households with their daily energy use.
