This allows renewable energy to flow to homes and business across Canberra when demand is high and solar generation drops. Construction is now underway on concrete bases for the batteries and the main switching building. This stored energy will be used to support our electricity grid. The Big Canberra battery. . This goal was reached in 2020 when the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) — home to the nation's half a million-strong capital, Canberra — had enough renewable electricity to make coal and gas obsolete. This 250MW/400MWh lithium-ion battery facility – equivalent to powering 100,000 homes for 4 hours – exemplifies how grid-scale storage bridges renewable energy gaps. . Batteries will play a key role in the electricity system by reinforcing the quality of the grid's supply and boosting the penetration of renewables at times of low electricity production, which is a key milestone in the energy transition.

On 26 June 2025, Oceans of Energy's offshore solar farm “Nymphaea Aurora” was officially inaugurated at the Port of Amsterdam. . The Port of Amsterdam has received the first floating solar units for an offshore solar farm. The assembly of the offshore solar farm has been successfully completed at the Port of Amsterdam, and the system. . Oceans of Energy, a Dutch renewable energy pioneer, realised that adding offshore solar panels to sea areas already used by wind farms could increase total energy production up to fivefold compared to offshore wind alone. The modular, prefabricated units were shipped directly from the Oceans of Energy factory and are set to be assembled for installation in 2025.
