Australia is a prime example of how battery storage solutions are transforming the energy landscape. Australia’s National Electricity Market (NEM) is transitioning from a centralised coal-fired generation system to a diverse mix of renewable sources of energy.
Battery energy storage systems (BESS) can be part of the solution to network challenges and, as we explore in this edition of RECAI, offer lucrative revenue opportunities for sophisticated investors — if they target the right regions and consider four factors.
An expanding role for battery energy storage systems (BESS) in a more volatile grid is seeing demand and investment opportunities soar. Our new ranking of the top global markets for BESS investment can guide strategies, and four factors can help potential investors frame their approach.
Here are two path-breaking battery storage projects. DBS is the Mandated Lead Arranger and Modelling Bank for Vena Energy’s 100MW/150MWh Wandoan South Battery Project, Australia’s first-ever project financing of a utility-scale battery project.
As a result of the project, Singapore has reached its BESS goal of over 200 MWh of energy storage capacity three years ahead of schedule. Singapore’s new BESS will help mitigate the solar intermittency caused by changing weather conditions in the region’s tropical climate.
“The Wandoan South Battery Project is one of the first battery projects financed by commercial banks in the Asia Pacific region”, Jern explains. “This demonstrates the increasing relevance of utility scale batteries and other forms of carbon-friendly storage to support wind and solar power as fossil fuel generation is wound down.”
