Stage 1 battery is now operating

We are proud to see our first big battery in Queensland operating in & strengthening the national electricity market at a capacity of 270 MW / 540 MWh, with grid-forming capabilities! Stage 1 of Western Downs Battery has completed all construction and commissioning works and is ready to support its multiple virtual battery customers including AGL, ENGIE AU & Shell Energy Australia.

Thanks to Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) and our lenders including the Clean Energy Finance Corporation for trusting our end-to-end expertise in accelerating Australia’s energy transition.

We are thankful for the ongoing support from surrounding communities — especially to the skilled workers, local businesses, and suppliers — who have been working with us on these projects. Let’s switch on Stage 2 soon!

Should you have any queries or concerns in relation to the works, please don’t hesitate to contact us on 1800 966 133 or email us through the contact page.
