Is battery storage a key part of Australia's Energy Future?
Battery storage is becoming a key part of Australia’s energy future, with homes and businesses increasingly installing lithium-based products and systems. With this shift comes the need for standards to protect end users and support growth in the sector.
What is Standards Australia's broader strategy for battery storage standards?
Standards Australia CEO Dr Bronwyn Evans explained the broader strategy for battery storage standards. “The adoption of this standard is the first step of a much bigger plan developed through extensive consultation with industry and government. “We will continue to adopt international standards wherever we can.
Is there an Australian standard for large energy storage batteries?
A major issue identified by ESV is the absence of an Australian Standard for large energy storage battery facilities. Efforts are being made to expedite the creation and subsequent release of an appropriate standard, however as an interim measure, technical guidance will represent an iterative update of the existing CEC guidance.
Why is Australia a good choice for energy storage systems?
Australia has an opportunity to influence further international thinking about the safety of energy storage systems. This also helps Australia’s sovereign reputation as well as our international presence on the BESS front. Classification as critical infrastructure.
Does Australia rely on overseas manufactured equipment for energy storage systems?
Australia is largely dependent on overseas manufactured equipment for energy storage systems. This guidance report consolidates learnings from the literature review, findings from stakeholder consultations, and broader industry knowledge to present a preliminary guide to approaching assessment of grid-scale BESS facilities moving forward.
What are energy storage systems?
Energy storage systems involving a combination of storage types, for example battery and hydrogen energy storage systems (referred to as renewable energy hubs). Similar to all documentation, this guidance is an evolving document. From this engagement, multiple stakeholders have conveyed that other technical guidance is being developed.
