Selection of the battery operator will be made in late 2024 following a procurement process. The Big Canberra Battery project will provide renewable energy security across the electricity grid, help the ACT grow its renewable energy sector, provide more local employment opportunities, and deliver a positive financial return for the Territory.
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.
"We look forward to delivering safe, secure and reliable energy to the grid," Mr Burrows said. The ACT government announces it's partnering with Eku Energy to deliver the much-hyped Big Canberra Battery which could power one-third of Canberra for two hours.
