Liddell Battery Energy Storage System Project

Project Overview:

Fluence Energy have been engaged formally by AGL Liddell BESS Pty Ltd to execute a design, engineer, manufacture, procure, supply, construct, deliver, install, commission and test the Facility.

The Facility will include a 500 MW/1000 MWh battery energy storage

System (BESS)

The strategy is for Fluence & balance of plant contractor to take the Project through full EPC execution.

As part of the early design phase , Fluence is looking to get some high-level budget pricing on key selected packages to understand the Order of Magnitude cost. A formal inqury for these packages will be followed in due course once the engineering design is progressed to sufficient detail.

Project Background

The Project objective is to develop a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) with a capacity of approximately 500 megawatts (MW) and 1,000 megawatt-hour (MWh) (Facility), designed as two independent generating systems of 250 megawatts (MW) and 500 megawatt-hour (MWh) each, which join together on the 330kV transmission before the Point of Connection (PoC). The Project would provide a range of network services to augment the reliability of energy supply, provide storage and firming capacity to the National Energy Market (NEM) as well as additional services to assist grid stability including frequency control ancillary services.

It will involve the construction and operation of the BESS as well as an associated 330kV overhead powerline (OHL). The BESS is located to the south of the existing Liddell Power Station. The OHL extends from the BESS to the existing grid connection at the Liddell Switchyard (west of the Liddell Power Station).

Fluence will entertain any local interest for the Liddell BESS project.
