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.
Liquid air (LAES), zinc–bromine batteries (ZNBR), underground hydrogen and thermal energy storage systems are all being studied to meet medium-duration and grid-scale storage applications.
The project is under development with planning and environmental studies underway. Once in operation, Tramway Road BESS will support the growth of renewable energy in Gippsland, including the future development of offshore wind in Gippsland, while helping Victoria reach its net zero emissions goals.
A report from the Clean Energy Council (CEC) released in June 2024, titled The Future of Long Duration Energy Storage, noted that lithium-ion batteries (LIB) and pumped hydrogen energy storage (PHES) are currently the dominant energy storage systems for renewables in Australia.
Australia''s clean energy future depends on large-scale electricity storage. Without it, our targets of 43% emissions reduction and 82% renewable energy by 2030, and net zero by 2050, are out of reach.

UNSW has partnered with the Fraunhofer Institute for Chemical Technology to form CENELEST, a German-Australian alliance for stationary energy storage.
China''''s energy storage bloom is unlikely to be disturbed in the long run, but the explosion in Apr. 16 brought clear short-term negative impacts on the nascent battery storage sector.
Welcome to the world of tram container energy storage projects, where urban transit meets cutting-edge energy innovation. As cities worldwide grapple with climate targets and aging infrastructure, these modular systems are emerging as unexpected heroes in
An alternative energy management system prototype has been built at CSIRO''s Lindfield site in Sydney that is catenary-free. The system uses an onboard energy storage system to power the trams and this first full-sized prototype
The paper reviews energy storage technologies and their applicability to the Australian National Electricity Market (NEM). The increasing dynamic variability between maximum and minimum operational demand shall continue to increase as time-varying renewable generation penetration proceeds.
