What if the funding requirements for the NZ battery investment are too high?
If the funding requirements for the NZ Battery investment are much greater than anticipated, there may be increased cost burdens for the Crown or electricity consumers. The Indicative Business Case is informed by the current best available cost information, but this will continue to be updated as improved design information becomes available.
What is NZ battery solution?
NZ Battery solution is intended to minimise the electricity price impacts on consumers associated with the cost of supply, and price volatility. large amount of new renewable generation will be required to meet electrification demand, transition to higher proportions of renewable electricity, and to support thermal exit.
Which large-scale battery energy storage systems are coming to New Zealand?
As a result, worldwide as well as in New Zealand, more and more large-scale Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are announcing their arrivals. Let’s take a look at a few examples: 1. WEL Networks + Infratec: 35 MW BESS
How can the NZ battery project achieve its strategic and investment objectives?
Ensure the NZ Battery Project will achieve its strategic and investment objectives. The project will have strong technical and policy directives which may at times be challenging to reconcile.
How many technology options are there in the NZ battery project?
A longlist of 28 different technology options was identified early in the NZ Battery Project by the NZ Battery Project team and MBIE Energy Markets policy team. The list was peer reviewed by the NZ Battery Technical Reference Group and Arup Ltd, and further considered by WSP Ltd.
