South Australia swamped by 90 battery storage proposals

The South Australian government’s ground breaking battery storage tender has generated a huge response from interested parties, with more than 90 proposals submitted in the first fact-finding round, indicating the massive possibilities with the technology.

The first stage of the tender closed last Friday, with several significant projects already outlined – mostly by Australia-based developers in tandem with international battery storage manufacturers, but there were also numerous other proposals that remain under the radar.

Energy Minister Tom Koutsantonis told RenewEconomy that the government has received 90 Expressions of Interest from more than ten countries for the battery storage proposal.

“Evaluation of the EOI is already underway which will lead to a shortlist being asked to participate in a Request for Proposal process,” he said in an emailed statement.
