Battery projects in Queensland
Updated
Queensland's battery pipeline is growing alongside its solar and wind development, with storage increasingly being used to shift generation from midday peaks into the evening demand window. The state's long-term energy plans also include major pumped hydro development, with the Borumba project representing one of the largest storage investments in the country. Grid-scale batteries are being developed by a range of players, including the state-owned generators as they adapt their portfolios ahead of coal retirements, and by independent developers responding to wholesale market signals and firming contract demand.
