Two pumped hydro energy storage (PHES) projects have been submitted for approval under Australia’s Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation (EPBC) Act.

Australia-based Ecoult has been selected by German developer Freqcon to install its UltraBattery lead-acid ultracapacitor hybrid for energy storage at South Dublin’s Tallaght Smart Grid Testbed.
