The ACT Government is building a big battery in Williamsdale. Construction has begun, in partnership with Eku Energy. This project is part of larger efforts to make Canberra a cleaner, greener city. Construction has begun the Williamsdale Battery Energy Storage System (BESS).
The ACT Government has reached a major milestone in its work to future-proof Canberra's energy supply. The development application has been approved to deliver Stream 1 of the project – a grid-scale battery in Williamsdale. This ACT Government has partnered with Eku Energy on this project. Construction will begin later this year.
The government said the big battery project will be capable of responding rapidly to network constraints and will be able to store enough renewable energy to power one-third of Canberra for two hours during peak demand periods. The Williamsdale battery will be developed, built and operated by Macquarie Group offshoot Eku Energy.
The Big Canberra Battery will have 500 MWh of capacity, which on a single charge could supply 23,400 households with their daily energy use. Approximately 180–200 jobs will also be created through the project. More batteries for Canberra
The way has been cleared for construction to begin on a 250 MW / 500 MWh battery energy storage system that will help “future proof” the Australian Capital Territory's energy supply by reducing the load on Canberra's electricity network and increasing network reliability.
