Technical FAQs 4

Where is a big battery project in Victoria?

A big battery project in Victoria’s north-east has received state government approval, bringing 1GWh of storage capacity one step closer to the grid. The 500MW/1000MWh Kiewa Valley BESS, to be developed by Trina Solar, will be located near the Dederang Terminal Station, approximately 3km from Dederang township.

Where is the Victorian big battery?

The Victorian Big Battery is located near the existing Moorabool Terminal Station, approximately 13km northwest of Geelong. This land is ideal because it is flat and is next to the high voltage 500KV transmission line which means the power can be sent quickly to where it is needed.

Will Trina Solar build a battery energy storage system in Victoria?

Trina Solar has submitted a planning application for a major battery energy storage system (BESS) in Victoria, Australia. The proposed Kiewa Valley BESS will have a capacity of 500 MW and 1 GWh, capable of dispatching power for up to two hours.

Why is Victoria a good place to build a big battery?

This land is ideal because it is flat and is next to the high voltage 500KV transmission line which means the power can be sent quickly to where it is needed. The Victorian Big Battery supports the increasing number of solar and wind projects in Victoria.
