We are thrilled to see the $1 billion Mount Piper Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) officially approved by the NSW Government—a game-changer for renewable energy and regional development in Lithgow! 🎉⚡ As an organisation deeply committed to sustainable solutions and community-focused outcomes, we’re proud to have supported this transformative project throughout its planning journey. From engaging local stakeholders to supporting community co-design of benefits, our team worked closely with EnergyAustralia and the Lithgow community to ensure this landmark project delivers long-term benefits. The Mt Piper BESS is a prime example of innovation meeting impact: - Powering over 320,000 homes and businesses during peak demand. - Creating 177 construction jobs and boosting local investment with a $2 million Voluntary Planning Agreement. - Strengthening NSW’s renewable energy grid with 500MW/2,000MWh of storage capacity. Congratulations to EnergyAustralia, the Lithgow community, and the Chris Minns Government on this critical step toward a sustainable future. Here’s to powering progress—one project at a time! 🌿💡 #RenewableEnergy #CommunityEngagement #EnergyTransition #Lithgow #Sustainability #EnergyStorage #EnergyAustralia
