Australia is at the forefront of the global energy transition, and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) are key to integrating renewables, improving grid stability, and driving decarbonization.
DNV’s Energy Transition Outlook 2025 shows that energy storage is set to become a cornerstone of the future energy system, driven by cost reductions and the need for flexibility in increasingly electrified grids. The report forecasts that primary energy supply will peak by 2036, with electrification and storage technologies delivering major efficiency gains across sectors. As solar and wind dominate the power mix, energy storage will be essential to balance variability and ensure reliability.
