BESS offer great flexibility, unlike some other forms of energy storage and generation. Their response time is fast, turning on and off in fractions of a second to help maintain grid stability. They respond to peak demand, build grid resilience and provide backup power when you need it.
Shell Energy is investing in new technologies and projects that will support our customers through the energy transition and create pathways to net-zero emissions.
Providing products and services that help large energy users decarbonise is a key focus for us in assembling the building blocks of a lower-carbon energy system in Australia.
Macquarie Asset Management''s Green Investment Group (GIG) and Shell Energy Operations (Shell Energy) are partnering to deliver a utility-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) in Cranbourne, Victoria. 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.
Shell Energy is proud to partner with the New South Wales Government on the Riverina Energy Storage System 1, a 60MW/120MWh battery, being developed by Edify Energy.
Shell Energy is proud to partner with AMPYR Australia on a 500MW/1000MWh battery located in Wellington, Central West NSW. It will be one of the largest energy storage projects in the state, supporting renewable generation and contributing to improved reliability for the grid and consumers.
Installing a behind-the-meter BESS on your site can help your business to improve its energy productivity, unlock revenue from various market schemes and deliver on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) commitments. Our BESS experts can design and install batteries on your site and help you structure your energy assets to optimise the value from your battery.
The best part of Shell Energy''s BESS Solution is that we really do it all. Our experienced team will design, supply, deliver, install, operate and maintain the battery for you for a truly tailored experience.
If you answered yes to these three questions, your business could be missing out on a guaranteed revenue stream that a Battery Energy Storage System can help you unlock.
Shell Energy understands the complexity of implementing large-scale projects for business. We have successfully delivered multiple, complex on-site behind the meter battery projects, which means we know the most streamlined ways to make your BESS dream a reality.
For each BESS project, Shell Energy will consult with local authorities to ensure compliance with relevant standards, obtain all approvals, and train local emergency services on the battery technology and emergency procedures.
Gain access to energy engineers with a deep understanding of the energy industry who can tailor solutions to your business and help you prepare for your next steps in the energy transition. By installing a BESS, you can also unlock further opportunities for energy efficiency through a Smart Energy Hub.
Shell Energy and The GPT Group partnered on a BESS at Chirnside Park Shopping Centre. Central to the plan at Chirnside Park was turning the asset into a Smart Energy Hub that includes a 2 megawatt-hour (MWh) battery coupled with a 650 kilowatt (kW) solar array, supported by our HVAC Load Flex product. It is Victoria''s and The GPT groups'' first Climate Active certified carbon neutral shopping centre that has reduced site energy demand by 70% during peak periods.
On-site battery energy storage systems, or ''behind-the-meter BESS'', could be the solution that empowers your business to improve its on-site energy productivity and unlock potential revenue from market revenue streams and meet its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) commitments. Through battery design, installation and energy asset structuring, Shell Energy can help your business optimise and maximise the value that your on-site battery delivers.
RERT and FCAS are mechanisms used by the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) to maintain electricity supply and power system reliability. Under these programs your business may be asked to reduce its consumption from the grid through activities such as switching to energy stored in your battery during peak grid demand periods, or rapidly dispatching power to the grid during a frequency deviation, to ensure its safe operation. In return, your business may be eligible for payments for participation in these programs.*
Smart Energy Hubs integrate and optimise energy supply, generation, energy management and demand flexibility to meet your business objectives. Smart Energy Hubs optimise the entire energy ecology of your business, combining the right mix of solutions for more significant energy efficiency gains and reduction of costs.
A Battery Energy Storage System may help your business unlock greater energy value, especially when combined with solar power generation. BESS, in tandem with solar, can benefit your business, as well as how to overcome a few of the most common barriers to investment.
Battery technology helps to firm up energy supply when the sun isn''t shining or the wind isn''t blowing, adding important reliability to a decarbonising electricity grid. Be a pioneer in the energy transition and utilise the capabilities of a battery.
One of the most common myths when it comes to BESS is that it can be complicated to extract monetary value from a battery and achieve a beneficial return on investment.
A common concern is around the fire-safety aspect of batteries. BESS technology is continually evolving and insights and learnings from previous events have led to the development of safer, more reliable systems. At Shell Energy, we only utilise BESS that come with in-built fire suppression technology and real-time operational condition monitoring to remotely shut down batteries and prevent fires.
Before installing a system, we methodically work through all potential scenarios during the project development and planning stages and embed controls to minimise potential of incidents. We develop emergency response procedures and protocols as part of our BESS implementation program to mitigate the risks associated with batteries.
Part of these emergency response procedures and protocols is complying with government mandates to work with local fire authorities and provide clear understanding on how to safely and efficiently respond and resolve any hazards that may occur once the BESS is energised and operational. All our BESS installations go through rigorous testing prior to being signed off by the relevant authorities as safe to operate.
