Construction of the fifth largest battery energy storage system in Australia has begun, located six kilometres from Port Pirie, South Australia, owned by Canadian-headquartered renewables developer Amp Energy.
South Australia already has four operating big batteries – at Hornsdale, Lake Bonney, Dalrymple North and Torrens Island, with another awaiting commissioning at Tailem Bend. Many other battery projects are in the pipeline awaiting development approval, contracts or financial close.
The new project is one of several new batteries being proposed or under construction in South Australia, including Epic Energy's recently announced 200MWh Mannum project in the Riverlands.
State Energy Minister Tom Koutsantonis said it was good to see more battery storage being built in the South East to "strengthen our security of supply and reliability". Pacific Green is also planning another energy park at Portland, in Victoria, and is looking for a second site in SA.
(Supplied: Pacific Green Australia) Pacific Green has won approval to build South Australia's largest battery storage project near Mount Gambier. It says the project will improve grid stability, reduce power prices and cut greenhouse gas emissions. What's next? Pacific Green is also looking to build a similar plant in Portland, Victoria.
The latter battery, colloquially known as the "Tesla battery", can store up to 193 megawatt hours (MWh) and was once the world's biggest. Seven years after it made international news, it's not even the state's biggest. As of August 2023, that title has belonged to AGL's battery at Torrens Island outside Adelaide, which has a capacity of 250MWh.
