The energy transition and the planned renewables roll-out is expected to create a large demand for energy storage and batteries across NSW and Australia. Over the next decade demand for storage in the country is expected to grow by nearly 20 times with NSW expected to account for more than any other state.
In early December 2024, we spoke with Andy Tang, VP of Wärtsilä Energy Storage & Optimisation Australia about the country's large-scale battery storage market, where he expressed that battery energy storage systems (BESS) in the country are “ at a scale that is not seen anywhere else in the world.”
UNSW is striving towards 1,000GWh of beneficial energy storage in Australia by 2050.

The Wellington Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is planned to be developed in the central west New South Wales (NSW), Australia. The project will comprise a grid-scale BESS with a total discharge capacity of around 400MW. AMPYR Australia, a renewable energy assets developer in the country, owns 100% of the BESS project.
The Wellington BESS project will be developed in two stages. The first stage will have a capacity of 300 MW / 600 MWh, while an additional 100 MW / 400 MWh capacity to be added in the second phase.
Construction of Stage 1 (300MW / 2 hours) will start mid-2025, finishing early 2027. Plans for construction of Stage 2 are ongoing, but construction is likely to follow 12 to 18 months behind Stage 1. The existing Wellington substation is very strategically located within the NSW energy grid.
“Supported by our high-calibre partners, ZEN Energy and Fluence, the Wellington Stage 1 BESS will play a critical role in an increasingly renewable grid whilst boosting Australia's energy storage capacity and supporting the delivery of low-cost energy to major users.”
This will make Wellington BESS one of the largest battery storage projects in NSW. Wellington is being constructed at 6773 and 6909 Goolma Road, Wuuluman NSW 2820. The project site is situated within the Central-West Orana Renewable energy Zone (CWO REZ), in the Dubbo Regional Council local government area (LGA).

To reduce energy costs, a facility with a microgrid can leverage a BESS to store power from variable renewable energy (VRE) sources, such as solar or wind, and then substitute the stored energy for utility power when utility rates are highest in an attempt to arbitrage. For example, they can help properly size diesel generators for cranes and other electric motors, and eficiently manage peaks in. Huijue Group's energy storage solutions (30 kWh to 30 MWh) cover cost management, backup power, and microgrids. By decoupling production and consumption, storage allows consumers to use energy whenever and wherever it. With Dynapower's fourth-generation inverters and long history with microgrids, we deliver the right products for each individual project, backed by deep design and engineering expertise. Getting it wrong is an expensive and dangerous mistake.
