GRID INTEGRATION AND STABILISATION
CO-LOCATING RENEWABLES AND BATTERIES: ASSESSING THE OPERATIONAL IMPLICATIONS by Andrew Stiel, Energy Markets and Offtake, Edify Energy
Edify Energy, with support from EnergyAustralia, recently published a knowledge sharing report covering the first 12 months of operations for the Gannawarra Energy Storage System – a 25MW/50MWh lithium-ion battery that shares connection infrastructure with the 50MW Gannawarra Solar Farm. Here, we explore some of the learnings from this first operational period and provide insights into how this may drive development decisions for future battery systems seeking to support renewables and advance the transition to a sustainable energy sector.
