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.
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.
Selection of the battery operator will be made in late 2024 following a procurement process. The Big Canberra Battery project will provide renewable energy security across the electricity grid, help the ACT grow its renewable energy sector, provide more local employment opportunities, and deliver a positive financial return for the Territory.
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.
"We look forward to delivering safe, secure and reliable energy to the grid," Mr Burrows said. The ACT government announces it's partnering with Eku Energy to deliver the much-hyped Big Canberra Battery which could power one-third of Canberra for two hours.
