The business case for behind-the-meter energy storage - Q1 performance of UQ’s 1.1MW Tesla battery
The University of Queensland recently installed a 1.1MW / 2.15MWh Tesla Powerpack system - QLD’s largest behind-the-meter battery. The battery is controlled autonomously by an in-house system in order to integrate the battery into UQ's overall 'Gensumer' energy strategy. Join the UQ Project team as we discuss the battery's first quarter of performance and key learnings we will be implementing going forward.
