Community batteries are popular – but we have to make sure they actually help share power

The idea is for these batteries to reduce carbon emissions and energy bills while benefiting all energy users nearby, rather than only those with access to rooftop solar. These are great ambitions – small wonder they’ve proven a hit.

Community batteries are popular – but we have to make sure they actually help share power

To power Australia without fossil fuels will mean using batteries to store power from solar and wind. We often think this means home batteries – or large grid-scale installations.

Can we meet emissions targets with communal batteries?

Alkimos Beach, located north of Perth, was one of the first towns to adopt a community battery in 2016. Despite the obscure fee structures and bizarre installation, it has saved the township thousands of dollars since. It begs the question, why aren’t we seeing more batteries in our suburbs and why is there backlash for something that slashes power bills by hundreds of dollars every few months?

Neighbourhood batteries in Australia

Experts from the Australian National University explain how battery storage installed at neighbourhood level can benefit a very wide range of stakeholders.

Powering ahead with community batteries

Date Time
Powering ahead with community batteries
Community-scale batteries are already achievable in Australia, will complement existing household batteries and will allow more solar energy to be stored in our suburbs, analysis from The Australian National University (ANU) shows.
With the move towards community-scale batteries gathering pace across the nation, two new reports from ANU show the best way forward when it comes to their rollout.
The batteries have power capacity of around one megawatt (MW), or enough to power around 100 houses. They help “soak up” solar power generated during the day, improving reliability.
“They have the potential to play an integral role in Australia’s transition to a decentralised grid by keeping generated energy close to where it will be used,” project lead Dr Marnie Shaw from the ANU Battery Storage and Grid Integration Program (BSGIP) said.

Largest battery in Australia to be built at ageing NSW coal-fired power plant

Largest battery in Australia to be built at ageing NSW coal-fired power plant
ABC Business

By business reporters Gareth Hutchens and Emilia Terzon
An energy provider's plan to build Australia's largest battery is the latest development in a quickly transitioning energy market.
Origin Energy has unveiled plans to build a giant 700-megawatt capacity battery at its coal-fired power plant in Eraring, south of Newcastle, in the New South Wales Hunter region.
If built, Origin said it would have capacity to supply that power to the grid for four hours.
If the plan goes ahead, the battery would be more than four times larger than the 150-megawatt Tesla battery in South Australia.
