Bondi Community Battery

Ausgrid, in partnership with the Australian Government, will deliver a community battery for the Bondi community.As we ramp up renewable generation, we know we will need more energy storage throughout the system to provide secure and affordable energy for Australian businesses and households.

Community batteries are a shared asset that offers the local community a stronger network and better solar hosting capacity - meaning more solar can be accommodated on the local network. The battery could store locally generated energy and then make this renewable energy available when it is needed.

In April last year, we asked for your feedback on a proposed location for a new community battery in Bondi Beach. Overall, the community was very supportive of the proposal.

Thank you for providing your feedback, we will progress with the location for the battery at the Francis Street road closure opposite Thomas Hogan Reserve.
