Shell partners GIG to build 200 MW/400MWh BESS project in Australia
5 April 2023
Shell Energy Operations (Shell Energy) has partnered with Macquarie Asset Management’s Green Investment Group (GIG) to deliver a utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) in Cranbourne, Victoria in Australia.
Once fully operational, the 200MW/400MWh Rangebank BESS will have the capacity to power the equivalent of 80,000 homes across Victoria for an hour during peak periods.
The project, to be built on two hectares of land within the Rangebank Business Park in Melbourne’s southeast, has reached a financial close and is expected to be completed in late 2024. The Rangebank BESS will be built, serviced, and maintained by Fluence, a global provider of energy storage products and services, and cloud-based software for renewables and storage, utilizing Fluence’s latest Gridstack product.
