01 JUL 2024 Contact’s first renewable project in Auckland to start immediately. Tesla selected as battery energy storage system supplier, the first Megapack 2 XL project in New Zealand. The battery system will discharge stored energy at a split second to significantly improve security of energy supply to New Zealanders.
Contact’s CEO Mike Fuge says the industrial-sized lithium battery will play a key role in maintaining a reliable supply of electricity for New Zealand, particularly during periods of high demand throughout the winter. It will also ultimately help with Contact’s transition away from an increasingly constrained gas market.
Contact, in the agreement with Tesla, also has the option to expand the capacity of the battery to 130 MW at this site; a move which would make it New Zealand’s biggest battery. The battery will store excess renewable electricity, often generated by the wind or sun in off-peak periods when demand is low, which would otherwise go to waste.
This will be the country’s newest large-scale battery, the closest to the largest city, and Tesla’s first Megapack 2 XL system in New Zealand.
