Shell Energy has signed an offtake deal with a 20-year term for 100% of dispatch rights to the BESS. CEO Joiner noted that the Rangebank BESS project marks the company''s first direct equity investment into a BESS project anywhere in the world, as well as being its first investment in a project of this type in Victoria.
Situated within the Rangebank Business Park in Melbourne''s southeast, the Rangebank Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) will provide 200MW / 400MWh capacity of reliable and flexible energy to Victorians upon completion in late 2024.
The Rangebank BESS will increase Victoria''s renewable energy hosting capacity while providing essential system services aiming to support the safe, secure and reliable operation of Australia''s power system. Once fully operational, the Rangebank BESS will have the storage capacity to power the equivalent of 80,000 Victorian homes for an hour

The Rangebank BESS is pleased to report, following the mobilisation of construction resources in June 2023 under the early works pre-construction approvals, that the project has achieved significant milestones in both the regulatory and delivery elements of the works.
Melbourne-based real estate company Perfection Private is a minority shareholder in the Rangebank project. GIG said it will transfer its interest in the project to its newly formed battery storage platform Eku Energy, which has a 4 GWh pipeline of utility scale battery projects in the UK, Australia, Japan and Taiwan.
The European energy storage market is booming with Germany leading residential adoption (+58% YoY) thanks to €500/kWh subsidies. Italy's new tax credits drive 5.2GWh commercial deployments, while UK grid-scale projects exceed 8GWh with 2-hour duration systems. Key selection criteria: German-certified safety (VDE-AR-E 2510), 10+ year warranties, and VPP readiness. Top-performing products include Sonnen's hybrid inverters (98% efficiency) and BYD's Blade Battery (12,000 cycles @80% DoD). For snowy regions like Scandinavia, consider Huawei's -30°C compatible systems. France mandates carbon footprint declarations - Sungrow's ISO-14067 certified solutions gain preference.
For European homeowners, 5-10kWh systems with 3-phase compatibility are ideal. Top picks: 1) Tesla Powerwall 3 (13.5kWh, 97% round-trip efficiency) for smart home integration; 2) LG Chem RESU Prime for compact urban installations; 3) SMA Sunny Boy Storage for retrofit projects. Critical features: EU-made battery cells (exempt from CBAM tariffs), dynamic tariff optimization (like Octopus Energy integration), and fire-safe LiFePO4 chemistry. Southern Europe demands 85%+ depth of discharge capability, while Nordic markets require -25°C operation. Always verify CEI 0-21 compliance for Italian grid connection and EnWG certification for German feed-in.
