Will Bess become a cog in New Zealand's energy landscape?
We expect that BESS will also become an increasingly important cog in New Zealand’s broader energy landscape and that we will see utility-scale solar projects incorporating batteries as a means of providing dispatchable generation during peak demand and enhancing grid stability.
How much does Bess cost?
The cost of BESS has fallen significantly over the past decade, with more precipitous drops in recent years: This is nearly a 70% reduction in three years, owing to falling battery pack prices (now as low as $60-70/kWh in China), increased deployment, and improved efficiency.
Why is Bess important in New Zealand?
BESS will become increasingly important in the future as New Zealand’s power system relies on more intermittent and variable generation. Work set out in the roadmap includes: Improving network pricing to maximise consumer benefits from new and emerging technologies, including BESS.
How many MWh will a Bess have in ?
Scheduled to enter service in the second half of , the BESS will have storage capacity of 200 megawatt-hours (MWh) to support the local grid demand for around two hours.
When is the first Bess project commissioned in New Zealand?
Whilst amendments were first made to New Zealand's Electricity Industry Participation Code (the Code) in to facilitate grid-scale BESS, the first significant (35MW) BESS project was not commissioned until March .
Will New Zealand invest in battery energy storage systems?
The Electricity Authority Te Mana Hiko has published a draft two-year roadmap that sets out our work to support investment in battery energy storage systems (BESS). BESS will become increasingly important in the future as New Zealand’s power system relies on more intermittent and variable generation. Work set out in the roadmap includes:
As BESS power flows go both ways, the charge for BESS is “double” despite not using additional capacity. From 1 April charges will be based on ‘the greater of’ injunction and demand. Residual charges are also being updated. Upgrades to distribution networks to accommodate two-way energy flows.Battery energy storage systems roadmap released
