Commercial operation starts for 204 MW wind+battery storage project in Australia

Neoen Australia, a unit of the French renewable power producer Neoen SA, has started the full-scale commercial operation of its Bulgana Green Power Hub located in Stawell in the state of Victoria, Australia.

The hybrid power plant consists of a 204 MW wind farm comprising 56 turbines and a 20 MW/34 MWh Tesla battery. It has the capacity to generate 750,000 MWh of clean energy annually, enough to power around 150,000 homes. 

Bulgana Green Power Hub is underpinned by a 15-year Support Agreement with the Victorian Government, contributing towards the state’s Victorian Renewable Energy Target (VRET) of 50% by 2030. The project created 150 construction jobs. Neoen has invested about AUD350 million (US$254.09 million) to develop the project.
