Environment Approvals
Equis has engaged specialist consultants to assess potential environmental impacts and engage with the local community.
The State Planning Commission is the relevant authority for the assessment of this application as the proposed development involves an electricity generating plant with a generating capacity of 5 MW or above connected to the State’s power system.
The Project has been granted development approval on the 10th August 2023.
Koolunga, South Australia
The proposed Koolunga Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is located approximately 1.1km northeast of the Brinkworth Substation on Power Station Road. The BESS has a battery energy storage capacity up to 200MW and discharge capacity up to 800MWh, which is enough power to supply electricity for up to 380,000 homes for four hours.
The BESS site will be connected to South Australia’s electricity grid via a transmission line that connects to the 275kV Brinkworth Substation. The project will help to secure South Australia’s future electricity demands.
