Australian battery storage developer Akaysha Energy has secured an AU$300 million (US$196 million) corporate debt facility to accelerate its growing portfolio of utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) projects across Australia and global markets.
“It’s the most powerful BESS in the world,” Nick Carter of Akaysha Energy, tells ESN Premium after switching on the Waratah Super Battery in New South Wales, Australia.
ESN Premium discusses the technology enabling Australia’s Waratah Super Battery to fulfil its critical System Integrity Protection Scheme (SIPS) duties.
Battery energy storage system (BESS) integrator Fluence will use its AI-powered bidding optimisation software Mosaic for 3.64GWh of Akaysha Energy BESS in Australia.
Energisation has begun at Waratah Super Battery, the energy storage project contracted as a ‘giant shock absorber’ for the grid in New South Wales, Australia.
