    We're looking to install the battery towards the end of November 2024. We're placing the batteries alongside some of our existing electricity asset along Maloneys Drive near Blue Gum Parade. Construction and installation will take approximately two weeks.

    What should you expect during the construction period?

    • Around three staff on site from our contractor Ventia
    • Trucks, utes and trailers, making beeping noises when reversing
    • A crane
    • Traffic control when lifting batteries into place
    • Use of power tools
