Fluence Energy, Inc. announced that the company has been selected by AMPYR Australia (AMPYR) for the 300 MW /600 MWh Wellington Stage 1 Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) in Wellington, New South Wales, Australia.

Wellington Stage 1 will use Fluence's Gridstack??

grid-scale energy storage product, underpinned by Fluence's multi-generational technology platform. The system will be optimized by Mosaic, Fluence's intelligent, AI-powered bidding software, designed to enhance the efficiency and profitability of BESS in the National Electric Market (NEM) and Nispera, Fluence's next generation asset performance management software. Mosaic will be used to manage AMPYR's virtual tolling contract, which will allow AMPYR to nominate when the battery should charge or discharge, to maximize performance.
