6 FAQs about [Canberra lithium battery energy storage system design]

What is the Big Canberra battery project?

The Big Canberra Battery project aims to deliver 250 MW of ‘large-scale’ battery storage (LSBS) across the ACT. The ACT Government engaged the ANU Battery Storage and Grid Integration Program to undertake a co-design workshop process to help inform the design of the project.

Will a big battery power Canberra?

The government said the big battery project will be capable of responding rapidly to network constraints and will be able to store enough renewable energy to power one-third of Canberra for two hours during peak demand periods. The Williamsdale battery will be developed, built and operated by Macquarie Group offshoot Eku Energy.

How will Canberra's new battery storage system work?

The large-scale battery storage system will deliver 250 megawatts (MW) of power, store renewable energy and support grid reliability. This is enough energy to power one-third of Canberra for two hours during peak demand periods. Behind-the-meter batteries will be installed to help power essential services across nine government sites.

Why should we use batteries in Canberra?

Batteries can store excess renewable energy to be used at later times of higher demand - thereby extending the benefit of renewable energy into the evenings. It will increase the renewable energy hosting capacity across the ACT enabling more Canberrans to access the benefits of renewables.

Will a 250 MW / 500 MWh battery energy storage system 'future proof' Canberra?

The way has been cleared for construction to begin on a 250 MW / 500 MWh battery energy storage system that will help “future proof” the Australian Capital Territory’s energy supply by reducing the load on Canberra’s electricity network and increasing network reliability.

What role does battery storage play in Canberra's electricity grid?

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. 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.
