Origin to double size of Eraring battery to soak up solar next to country’s biggest coal generator
Origin Energy has announced plans to double the size of the Eraring battery already under construction, adding a more than four-hour second stage to the facility to help soak up solar at the site of Australia’s largest coal generator.

The addition of a 240 megawatt (MW), 1030 megawatt hour (MWh) second stage will take the total size of the Eraring battery to 700 MW and 2103 MWh – pipped in size only by Neoen’s 2240 MWh Collie battery in Western Australia and Ark Energy’s proposed eight hour 2,200 MWh Myrtle Creek battery in NSW as the biggest in the country.

Origin is rapidly accelerating its investments in battery storage, having recently committed to the development of a 300 MW/650 MWh battery next to its Mortlake gas generator in Victoria, and striking tolling agreements for the offtake of the Supernode battery stage 1 and 2 near Brisbane, which amounts to 500 MW and 1560 MWh over two stages.
