Can New Zealand recharge EV batteries?

In a New Zealand first, Counties Energy is completing the life-cycle for used electric vehicle (EV) batteries by converting them into its Berm Battery energy storage system for recharging EVs.

How much does a battery cost in New Zealand?

The mean charging spot price was $123/MWh and the median was $132/MWh. As New Zealand electrifies, more grid-scale batteries will support the growing renewable energy supply. Meridian Energy is building a 100MW (200MWh) battery near Ruakākā in sunny Northland. This battery is expected to be commissioned in September 2024.

Who has been contracted to build a battery energy storage system?

Project partners WEL Networks — and electricity distribution company — and renewable energy developer Infratec announced this week that major equipment suppliers have been contracted for the project. Construction will commence in New Zealand on the country’s biggest battery energy storage system (BESS) project so far in July.

Does Saft offer a battery energy storage system for New Zealand?

Saft Executive Vice President for Energy Storage Solutions, Hervé Amossé says, “Saft is proud to provide this first Battery Energy Storage System for New Zealand in the Waikato. We are excited to start this operation phase of the battery for which we will continue to support our partners.

What are grid-scale batteries & how can they benefit New Zealand?

Grid-scale batteries maximise the benefits of renewable energy and provide extra resilience during times of tight electricity supply. Additionally, these batteries, alongside more renewable generation, will help off-set the retirement of thermal generation and support New Zealand’s transition to a low-emissions economy.

Will New Zealand get its first big battery by 2024?
