Australia’s first 8-hour grid-scale battery is now operating in Limondale, NSW 🇦🇺
Built by RWE with 144 Tesla Megapacks, it can store 400+ MWh of energy and discharge at 50 MW for more than 8 hours
It can charge at 100 MW....twice as fast as it discharges
So during the day it can soak up huge amounts of excess solar quickly....then release that energy slowly through the evening peak and deep into the night
144 Megapacks
400+ MWh
8+ hours of storage
