Planning is underway for the world's largest battery to be built in the NSW Hunter Valley, with the company behind it confident that it will be up and running in two years.
CEP Energy, whose chairman is former NSW premier Morris Iemma, has secured a 30-year lease to install a 1,200-megawatt battery at Kurri Kurri north-west of Newcastle.
The company said it would be eight times more powerful than the Hornsdale battery that fuels South Australia's grid, and while it would be able to store many types of energy, it was expected to mainly store solar-generated power.
