Battery energy storage is currently the fastest-growing commercial technology in the power sector and plays a big role in the global shift towards a more sustainable and resilient energy
In response to Australia’s explosion of data centres and their increasing demands on the power grid, regulators have proposed changes to rules around grid connections
Queensland is building a SuperGrid, a massive upgrade of renewable energy generation, poles and wires, and energy storage. As this project progresses and the proportion of renewables on the grid grows, more peaking power generation
Infrastructure projects such as railways, roads, water, and large power plants are capital-intensive, complex projects that pose several technical, regulatory and financial challenges. These challenges must be planned for and addressed through technical due diligence — an independent
Queensland’s new legislative environment, including the Energy Roadmap Amendment Bill 2025 and the transition to the Energy (Infrastructure Facilitation) Act, is designed to streamline approvals and strengthen transmission
Although renewables provide 30% of Queensland’s contribution to the NEM, the stability of its supply depends on the state’s fleet of thermal (coal and gas) power stations to provide firming capacity. As renewable penetration continues to increase, Queensland needs
A year ago, Bloomberg NEF (BNEF) reported the largest annual drop in battery prices since 2017. Turnkey energy storage system prices fell by around 40%, dropping to US$165/kWh in
Queensland’s Energy Roadmap 2025 marks a major shift to focus more heavily on reliability. The state is now prioritising firm and dispatchable generation, particularly gas as one of the backbones
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming battery energy storage systems (BESS) from manual processes into adaptive and cost-effective assets. The shift is shown in the numbers already. In
When you’re operating outside your organisation’s technical comfort zone, that’s where RPEQ supervision becomes a real asset. More than a compliance exercise, it’s a layer of accountability
