Developed in consultation with government and over 50 industry organisations, the Renewable Energy Storage Roadmap aims to ignite meaningful discussion on energy storage, address uncertainties around net zero pathways and provide decision-makers with the tools to make informed decisions.
As Australia transitions to net zero, renewable energy storage is critical to ensure a secure, sustainable and affordable electricity supply. Our Renewable Energy Storage Roadmap highlights the need to rapidly scale up a diverse portfolio of storage technologies to keep pace with rising demand and
This study shows that battery electricity storage systems offer enormous deployment and cost-reduction potential. By , total installed costs could fall between 50% and 60% (and battery cell costs by even more), driven by optimisation of manufacturing facilities, combined with better
The Clean Energy Council commissioned this Green Energy Markets report to outline the scale of the commitments and build that Australia needs in order to meet its 82 per cent renewable energy target by . This target is not only essential for replacing Australia’s ageing and unreliable
Renewable energy investment has increased significantly in Australia over recent years, contributing to a continuing shift in the energy generation mix away from traditional fossil fuel sources. Current estimates suggest that investment in renewable energy has moderated from its recent peak and is
It projects that the levelized cost of electricity (LCoE) from large-scale solar will continue to fall from between $44 and $65/MWh currently to between $27 and $56/MWh by , while the LCoE for onshore wind will go from between $49 and $61/MWh to between $40 and $59/MWh. The integration costs
Investment in renewables is supported by the Renewable Energy Target (RET) through large-scale generation certificates (LGCs) and small-scale technology certificates (STCs). LGCs and STCs provide incentives to bring forward investment in additional renewable energy and support the economic case for
