Narrabri Solar & BESS Hybrid

Narrabri Solar & Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) Hybrid is proposed as a 140 MWDC Solar Farm and 100 MW BESS with up to 8 hours of storage located on of private land approximately 11km north-east of Narrabri in regional New South Wales.

The project will connect directly to the existing 132 kV high voltage transmission line that traverses the project site to enable power to be exported into the National Electricity Market.
