Australia’s NEM will see a massive increase in grid-scale battery energy storage capacity in the next three years. There are 16.8 GW of battery projects that could come online in the National Electricity Market (NEM) by the end of 2027.
However, the report finds that high daily price volatility in power markets makes battery investments appealing even without government guarantees. “Battery storage will be crucial in Australia’s energy transition, influenced by the growth of renewable energy and market volatility.
Projected internal rates of return (IRRs) for 4-hour duration battery energy storage systems (BESS) vary between 13% and 15%, demonstrating their viability in a fluctuating energy market. “Our 30-minute price forecasts show daily price spreads consistently over AU$100/MWh (US$63/MWh), with increasing spikes up to AU$400 or more.
There are 16.8 GW of battery projects that could come online in the National Electricity Market (NEM) by the end of 2027. This would result in a ninefold increase in battery energy storage capacity in just three years - with 2 GW operational today. So what is driving this battery build?
Even so, this buildout would result in a sevenfold increase in operational battery capacity over the next three years. Australia has a massive pipeline of grid-scale battery energy storage projects. 16.5 GW of new battery projects could arrive in the NEM in the next 3 years.
Wood Mackenzie outlines that a 4-hour battery that starts operations in 2026 is projected to generate an average annual revenue of AU$263,000/MW over its lifetime, with Queensland expected to lead at AU$281,000/MW.
