Why is Bess important in New Zealand?

The uptake of BESS in New Zealand is particularly important given that it can help to solve one of the country's biggest energy challenges – meeting peak demand. In recent years, there have been ongoing concerns as to the reliability of New Zealand’s electricity supply following blackouts in 2021. This is because:

Will Bess become a cog in New Zealand's energy landscape?

We expect that BESS will also become an increasingly important cog in New Zealand’s broader energy landscape and that we will see utility-scale solar projects incorporating batteries as a means of providing dispatchable generation during peak demand and enhancing grid stability.

Does Saft offer a battery energy storage system for New Zealand?

Saft Executive Vice President for Energy Storage Solutions, Hervé Amossé says, “Saft is proud to provide this first Battery Energy Storage System for New Zealand in the Waikato. We are excited to start this operation phase of the battery for which we will continue to support our partners.

When is the first Bess project commissioned in New Zealand?

Whilst amendments were first made to New Zealand's Electricity Industry Participation Code 2010 (the Code) in 2018 to facilitate grid-scale BESS, the first significant (35MW) BESS project was not commissioned until March 2024.
