The Orana Battery Energy Storage System, proposed by Akaysha Energy, includes the construction and operation of a 400-megawatt (MW) / 1,600-megawatt hour (MWh) lithium-ion battery energy storage system (BESS) and ancillary infrastructure.
The Orana battery energy storage system (BESS) project in New South Wales, Australia, has reached an agreement for A$650 million with Akaysha Energy. Situated in the Central West Orana renewable energy zone, the Orana project will be built with funding from the three-year facility. The project is scheduled to be online in 2026 with a 1,660 MWh
DNV conducted technical due diligence for raising AUD 650 million debt financing for the Orana battery energy storage system (BESS) project. Debt deal paves the way to add more than 415MW/1,660MWh of new energy storage to the National Electricity Market.

Akaysha plans to construct a large-scale battery energy storage system (BESS) near Wellington in central-west NSW named the Orana BESS. This facility will boast a capacity of 415MW and store 4 hours'' worth of energy, totalling 1660MWh. Construction preparations are underway, including road upgrades at the site access intersection.
Akaysha is also using Megapacks at its 1,660MWh Orana BESS, located in the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone (REZ), in New South Wales. However, the developer has a multi-supplier approach and for its biggest project to date, the Waratah Super Battery project, also in New South Wales (slightly larger than Orana at 850MW/1,680MWh),
The financing will provide construction funding for Akaysha''s Orana Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) project, which is one of the largest four-hour batteries globally and will add more than 1,660MWh of storage capacity to the National Electricity Market (NEM).
Consolidated Power Projects (CPP) is pleased to announce the signing of contracts with Akaysha Energy for the Orana Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Balance of Plant (BoP) project. Akaysha Energy will oversee the deployment of a groundbreaking large-scale BESS near Wellington in central West New South Wales.
This project is a standalone Battery Energy Storage System- or BESS for short. The project is located approx. 60 km south of Dubbo Township and approx. 11 km south of Wellington Township in the Central-West Orana Renewable Energy Zone. The towns host a combined estimated resident population of 47,000. Boasting 120MW and 264MWh this large-scale
The Orana BESS will support capacity in the Central-Orana Renewable Energy Zone. The Site . The proposed site is approximately 2km north-east of Wellington, adjacent to TransGrid''s 330kV zone substation as depicted below. The BESS will occupy an area of ~10 hectares adjacent to the electricity grid and sharing a boundary with the TransGrid

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.
