Stanwell inicia operaciones de la batería Tarong de 600 MWh

La gentailer estatal de Queensland, Stanwell, ha iniciado las operaciones comerciales de su sistema de almacenamiento de energía en batería Tarong de 300 MW / 600 MWh, ubicado cerca de la central térmica de carbón de Tarong. El proyecto, construido con 164 unidades Tesla Megapack 2XL, comenzó su construcción en 2023 y ahora abastece al Mercado Nacional de Electricidad. El CEO de Stanwell, Michael O’Rourke, destacó su papel en la entrega de energía fiable.

El sistema de almacenamiento de energía en batería (BESS) de Tarong, coubicado con la central térmica de carbón de Tarong a 190 kilómetros al noroeste de Brisbane, marca el primer proyecto de batería de propiedad total de Stanwell. Valorado en 514 millones de dólares australianos (363 millones de USD), esta instalación despachable de 2 horas utiliza 164 unidades de iones de litio Tesla Megapack 2XL, cada una de aproximadamente 38 toneladas de peso. La instalación fue completada por la empresa estatal de servicios de energía renovable Yurika. Construction on the project started in 2023, and it has now entered commercial operation, providing energy to the National Electricity Market (NEM). Stanwell Chief Executive Officer Michael O’Rourke stated that the project was delivered end-to-end by the company's team. “Stanwell’s deep experience operating and maintaining reliable coal-fired power stations is powering a broader vision, to build a more flexible and reliable energy portfolio to meet Queensland’s growing energy needs,” O’Rourke said. He added, “This means we can continue to deliver affordable, reliable and sustainable energy for Queensland, our customers and the NEM.” The Tarong BESS is part of Stanwell’s larger 2.8 GWh battery firming portfolio. This includes the 300 MW / 1,200 MWh Stanwell Battery near Rockhampton, which uses 324 Tesla Megapack 2XL units. Additionally, Stanwell has a capacity purchase agreement for 100% of the stored energy from Quinbrook’s Supernode Stage 3 BESS at Brendale, and an agreement to purchase energy from the 200 MW Blue Grass solar farm near Chinchilla, 290 kilometres northwest of Brisbane.
