Combined LTESA and CIS tenders have now backed over 9.2 GW of energy storage, with the majority located in NSW. Less than 1/3 of the total capacity secured by the CIS and LTESA so far has reached FID. Opening in
The Australian government has officially opened the Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) Tender 8, targeting 16GWh of energy storage capacity across the National Electricity Market (NEM).
This latest procurement builds on the 19 CIS agreements already executed nationwide, covering 5.85 GW of capacity. To date, the scheme''s portfolio has locked in an estimated $10.5 billion in combined
Sixteen battery energy storage projects with a combined capacity of 4.13 GW / 15.37 GWh have been named as the winners of the Australian government''s latest Capacity Investment Scheme tender.
With Tender 8, Australia is not merely procuring additional storage—it is broadening the architecture of its future power system. By placing large utility-scale batteries alongside aggregated smaller
Tender 8 aims to deliver 16 GWh (4 GW of 4-hour equivalent) of dispatchable capacity in the National Electricity Market (NEM). The tender is currently open for registrations and bids.
Australia has concluded its largest dispatchable capacity procurement under its Capacity Investment Scheme (CIS) to date. CIS Tender 3 aimed to deliver 4 GW of four-hour equivalent dispatchable
The federal government has announced 16 winners of its landmark tender for “dispatchable generation” – the biggest ever held in the country – confirming battery storage as the overwhelming success
Australia''s climate change and energy minister, Chris Bowen, confirmed the tender results this morning (9 October). The 20 winning projects span solar, wind and battery storage technologies, with solar
The tender represents the largest single energy storage procurement under the CIS programme, reflecting the government''s accelerated deployment timeline for grid-scale storage infrastructure.
