The first quarter of 2025 was the second best on record for investment in large-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) in Australia, with six projects worth $2.4 billion in total reaching the financial commitment stage – delivering an extra 1.5 GW in storage capacity and 5 GWh in energy output, according to new figures released by the
Business intelligence company Rystad Energy has said that almost 4 GW of utility-scale battery energy storage systems (BESS) entered construction in the first nine months of 2024.
The report responds to common challenges around decarbonisation and technology readiness, examining the role of storage for seven sectors, and outlining the strengths and weaknesses of specific technology options.

The energy storage project will provide EnergyAustralia with a natural hedge against such market fluctuations and help stabilise energy prices and ensure a more resilient energy supply. “At EnergyAustralia, our purpose is to lead and accelerate the clean energy transformation for all,” said EnergyAustralia Managing Director, Mark Collette.
The Geelong Big Battery Energy Storage System is a 300,000kW lithium-ion battery energy storage project located in Geelong, Victoria, Australia. The rated storage capacity of the project is 450,000kWh. The electro-chemical battery storage project uses lithium-ion battery storage technology. The project will be commissioned in 2021.
Australia had 2,325MW of capacity in 2022 and this is expected to rise to 22,076MW by 2030. Listed below are the five largest energy storage projects by capacity in Australia, according to GlobalData’s power database. GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of the global energy storage segment.
The volume of large-scale battery energy storage projects under construction in Australia passed that of solar and wind projects combined in 2023 and the trend has intensified this year, with batteries attracting federal support. As coal-fired power plants are shuttered, developers and suppliers are enjoying a battery bonanza.
Renewable storage technologies have the potential to revolutionise clean and reliable energy access in remote communities, support cost-effective decarbonisation in industry and transform Australia into a green hydrogen export superpower.
Energy storage systems, such as big batteries, are a critical part of Australia’s future energy mix and act as a reliable back-up system allowing us to store renewable energy for when it is needed most and keep the lights on under all conditions. It’s great to see the high levels of investment we’ve seen over the past couple of years continue.
