How is energy stored in Australia?
Currently storage of electrical energy in Australia consists of a small number of pumped hydroelectric facilities and grid-scale batteries, and a diversity of battery storage systems at small scale, used mainly for backup. To balance energy use across the Australian economy, heat and fuel (chemical energy) storage are also required.
How are distributed energy resources Transforming Australia's power system?
Distributed Energy Resources (DER) are transforming the power system. Australians have embraced rooftop solar at double the rate of any other nation, and at 10 times the world average.2 The Australian Energy Market Commission (AEMC) reports that between 2.6 and 3 million households already have solar panels, which supply around 14GW of capacity.
What is energy storage?
Energy storage secures and stabilises energy supply, and services and cross-links the electricity, gas, industrial and transport sectors. It works on and off the grid, in passenger and freight transportation, and in homes as ‘behind the meter’ batteries and thermal stores or heat pump systems.
What are some examples of distributed energy resources?
Common examples of DER include rooftop solar PV units, battery storage, thermal energy storage, electric vehicles and chargers, smart meters, and home energy management technologies. Distributed energy resources are changing the way Australia produces and manages electricity.
Does Australia have a competitive advantage in energy storage systems?
Many stakeholders suggested that Australia has greater competitive advantages and potential for manufacturing success in the hardware and software systems that will be required for smart management and integration of energy storage systems.
Is Australia a test bed for distributed energy storage?
Australia is widely viewed as a test bed for the impacts and benefits for distributed energy storage due to its rapid energy storage market growth – 356 per cent growth between 2014 and 2015 (China Energy Storage Alliance, 2016).
