Overview

We've been engaged by Tilt Renewables to connect the La Trobe Valley BESS (LVBESS) to the electricity grid. We will design, build, own and operate the transmission assets that will connect the LVBESS to the grid. Once connected, the LVBESS will have a total capacity of 100MW/200MWh.

The LVBESS includes the following components:
