So far, the firm provides half of the state’s energy storage.
Neoen has started operating its second battery storage project in South Australia.
The firm stated in an announcement that their Blyth Battery initiative boasts a capability of 238.5 MW / 477 MWh, making it the largest facility of its kind in South Australia.
“Blyth Battery will not just enhance the grid but also assist with Neoen’s inaugural renewable energy baseload agreement, aiding in stabilizing wind power from our Goyder South Stage 1 wind farm to supply electricity for BHP’s Olympic Dam operation—situated in South Australia as well,” according to Neoen.
Together with the Hornsdale Power Reserve, which has a capacity of 150 MW / 193.5 MWh, Neoen stated that they are providing almost half of the state’s energy storage capabilities.
