View DetailsThe Wellington Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) will store excess renewable energy ready for use by homes and businesses during peak times. BESS projects play an important role in the future electricity system. Construction of the project will be undertaken by AMPYR's preferred construction contractors Fluence and RJE Global.
The target capacity of the Wellington BESS is 500 MW / 1,000 MWh, making it one of the largest battery storage projects in NSW. The Wellington BESS will connect to the adjacent TransGrid Wellington substation, adjacent to the Central West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (Central West Orana REZ).
The Wellington Stage 1 BESS will be delivered by energy storage and software company Fluence, using its advanced Gridstack grid-scale energy storage product.
AMPYR said it was on track to deliver more than 6 GWh of energy storage projects by 2030, including the Wellington Stage 1 BESS along with an additional 100 MW/400 MWh in Stage 2, providing a total 1 GWh of energy storage in the region by 2027.
