Waratah Super Battery
The world’s biggest battery on Australia’s energy grid is now on standby as a shock absorber to prevent blackouts in New South Wales.
The Waratah Super Battery will also allow NSW to use and transmit more energy, applying further downward pressure on electricity prices, experts say.
The battery, built on the site of the former Munmorah coal-fired power station on the Central Coast, has added 350MW of battery capacity to the energy grid since plugging in last September.
Andes Solar Park
The Andes Solar Park IV’s 5-hour duration lithium-based 130MW battery energy storage system (BESS) is the largest operational BESS in Latin America, according to AES Andes.
Sun Streams 3
Sun Streams 3 is the first project at Longroad’s Sun Streams complex that includes battery energy storage. The storage component will provide reliability benefits to the Arizona grid because it will allow solar energy generated during the day to be dispatched in the evenings when it is needed most. The project’s total output will be purchased by Arizona Public Service via a long-term Power Purchase Agreement.
Overhill
The Overhill project rated 50MW / 110MWh is being developed adjacent to the 33 KV Rothienorman substation near Aberdeen, Scotland.
