The Federal Government has funded over 400 community batteries to be installed across Australia to provide shared storage for up to 100,000 households. Most of that funding has gone to electricity distributors, the poles and wires companies. One of those companies is Ausgrid, the largest distributor of electricity on the east coast, providing power to nearly 2 million customers. Group Executive of Distributed Services at Ausgrid, Rob Amphlett Lewis, discusses why mid-scale batteries have a big role to play in the energy transition, how they will become cost effective in the future, and how householders can benefit from them.
