Octopus Australia has acquired the Coleambally Battery, a 100 MW / up to 4-hour standalone battery project located in southern New South Wales.
The project has secured Development and grid connection approvals and will be led by Octopus through the final development phase.
By combining storage with generation, the project will provide the flexibility to shift renewable output into periods of peak demand and strengthen overall grid reliability.
The Coleambally battery complements Octopus’ Darlington Point Solar Farm and will help meet New South Wales’ 2 GW storage target by 2030.
