How much does a battery storage project cost in Australia?
According to TrinaSolar that cost will total just $400 million. The company clarified to Renew Economy that this $400 million reflects only the first 330MW/1.32GWh stage of the project – but it still appears to set a new low for battery storage project costs in Australia.
