US-made battery storage DC containers will become cost-competitive with China in 2025 thanks to the IRA, Clean Energy Associates said.
Battery energy storage has a critical role to play in managing the intermittency of renewables, balancing the grid, and ensuring reliable electricity. Australia''s journey toward a net-zero future hinges on the
There are also 69 committed storage projects (either standalone or hybrid projects) currently in this pipeline, equivalent to 12,532 MW / 32,078 MWh in capacity / energy output. Read the latest updates from the Clean Energy Council and across the industry. When it comes to Australia’s energy future, communities have legitimate questions.
Australia's remarkable run of investment commitments to energy storage projects continued in Q1 2025. Six storage projects representing 1,510 MW (capacity) / 5,016 MWh (energy output) reached financial close – the second-highest quarterly result for newly financially committed storage projects.
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.
Six storage projects representing 1,510 MW (capacity) / 5,016 MWh (energy output) reached financial close – the second-highest quarterly result for newly financially committed storage projects. New financial commitments to generation projects experienced a slow start to the year after a bumper fourth quarter in 2024.
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?
