Project Name |
Horizon Power Regional WA Community Battery Deployment Project |
Project Detail |
The Project is deploying 10 front-of-the-meter batteries with a combined capacity of 1MW/2.5MWh across the large geographical footprint of Western Australia in Esperance, Exmouth, and Carnarvon. Community batteries are a promising solution to enable the storage of distributed renewable energy for later use, reduce distribution network constraints, and put downward pressure on electricity prices. The October 2022 Federal Budget provided $171 million for ARENA to deliver the Community Batteries for Household Solar Budget Measure (Budget Measure) to deploy 342 community batteries across Australia. |
