How many battery storage systems will be installed by 2020?

CSIRO and Energy Networks Australia estimated that 1.5 million battery storage systems could be installed by 2020. The Smart Energy Council has developed three scenarios for uptake of energy storage – high, medium and low scenarios. We estimate that 150,000-450,000 energy storage systems could be installed by 2020.

Will CIS support storage capacity delivery by 2030?

The CIS seeks to support delivery of 23 GW of generation and 9 GW of storage capacity by 2030. Given the potential scale of this scheme over the next five years, every storage market participant needs to refine their strategy, governance, and bid approach to account for the market’s new largest buyer of storage contract agreements.
