The large-scale battery storage system will deliver 250 megawatts (MW) of power, store renewable energy and support grid reliability. Enough energy to power one-third of Canberra for two hours during peak demand periods. The Big Canberra battery. . The facility has a power of 10 MW and a storage capacity of 20 MWh, equivalent to two-hours' consumption of 3,000 households. Batteries will play a vital role in the electricity system by reinforcing grid supply quality and promoting the penetration of renewables at times of low electricity. . The Big Canberra Battery will be one of the largest in Australia -- able to power up to 23,400 homes with their daily energy use, on a single charge. Canberra Times: ground breaking ceremony, plugging in profits from a big battery.
