Energy storage systems, such as big batteries, are a critical part of Australia’s future energy mix and act as a reliable back-up system allowing us to store renewable energy for when it is needed most and keep the lights on under all conditions. It’s great to see the high levels of investment we’ve seen over the past couple of years continue.
Image: Fluence. A new report published by Australia’s Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) has found that large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) capital costs have improved the most in 2024-25, falling by 20% year-on-year (YoY).
2030 generation costs: To meet Australia’s target of 82% renewable energy by 2030, the electricity cost is estimated to be about $91 per megawatt-hour (MWh) when transmission is included, or $81/MWh for generation alone.
Increasing gap between maximum and minimum operational demand in Australia call for urgent need of balancing storage technologies. Fast response hybrid battery-supercapacitor energy storage are deemed prudent solution for the transition period, while PHES and Hydrogen are for long-term storage
