Wak Wak Solar and Battery Energy Storage Project
Sector: Energy Storage • Location: Near Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia
Source: pv magazine Australia
The Wak Wak project is a proposed 2.7 GW solar farm combined with 6 GWh of battery energy storage to provide a year-round optimized renewable energy supply. It aims to generate and store renewable solar energy for existing industry in the greater Darwin region and potentially for green hydrogen production. The project includes a planned high-voltage transmission line to connect to the Darwin H2 Hu
