Australia's Big Battery Storage Projects
Big battery projects in Australia have grown significantly, with current projects being over ten times bigger than the first one installed eight years ago at Hornsdale.
The first big battery storage project in Australia, the "Tesla big battery" at Hornsdale, was 100 megawatts (MW) and 129 MWh, which was the biggest in the world at the time.
- There are now nearly 50 big batteries operating across Australia.
- More are in construction, commissioning, and advanced development.
- The Hornsdale battery has been expanded to 150 MW and 193 MWh.
The Hornsdale battery is dwarfed by the size of the projects being rolled out now.
Many of the ten biggest battery projects in Australia have more than 10 times the storage capacity of Hornsdale, with one having nearly 15 times the capacity.
Author's summary: Australia's big battery storage projects have grown significantly in size.
