Building social license for batteries through research, partnership and transparency
We are supporting Australian National University’s Centre for Energy Systems (ACES) with a sizable grant to faciliate postdoctoral research to explore the role of utility-scale batteries in the National Electricity Market (NEM). The work seeks to analyse the behaviour, performance and energy system outcomes that these projects can deliver to support energy security and local communities through the energy transition.
What is most significant about the partnership between Eku Energy and ACES is that this research will deliver findings that are accessible to non-experts that will help to demystify batteries, highlight their importance and challenges, and identify how these projects deliver a just transition by bringing communities into the development conversation.
