5 FAQs about [New australian energy storage system standards]

What is the future of energy storage?

Households and businesses also feature heavily in forecasts around energy storage. Of the 46 GW of dispatchable storage required by 2050, about one-third – 16 GW – will come from utility-scale batteries and pumped hydro. The remaining two-thirds – 31 GW – will come from virtual power plants, vehicle-to-grid and other distributed technologies.

Is energy storage a service?

Energy storage is not defined as a service separate from generation and load. Instead of defining a new service, a bidirectional unit generates and consumes electricity. The Commission’s final decision is to create a new participant category, the IRP, for storage and hybrid proponents, including aggregators of small units.

Will Australian households embrace batteries at home?

There is likely much to be gleaned from the rollout of the federal government’s program, which will deploy 400 community-scale batteries serving up to 100,000 households across Australia. And we don’t yet know whether households will embrace batteries at home as enthusiastically as they put solar panels on their rooves.

What is the AEMC doing to support energy storage?

The AEMC is doing a lot of work to support the integration of energy storage into the National Electricity Market. You can see some of our recent projects listed here. Some of these changes are very technical in nature but collectively they’re designed to smooth the path for energy storage in a number of ways.
