ACEN Australia, a unit of Ayala Group’s ACEN Corp., said over the weekend the New South Wales government decided to increase the size of the New England Solar battery energy storage system.

“It will be a reliable, cheaper and greener form of energy generation for NSW,” ACEN head of international Patrice Clausse said as he thanked the NSW government for supporting the project.

The NSW approved the proposal of ACEN Australia to increase the BESS capacity to 2,800 megawatt-hours―enough to supply 175,000 homes with on-demand energy. An application to modify the project was recently approved by the Department of Planning and Environment, which increase the BESS capacity of 1,400MW/2hr, or 2,800 megawatt-hours.

This area was chosen due to its proximity to the substation where it can connect to the electricity transmission network. “The New England Solar battery storage can charge using excess power generated from solar and wind, and discharge that energy when required,” he said.
