Whakamaru North BESS

The proposed Whakamaru North BESS is co-developed by Eku Energy and Helios Energy.

The project is in development with planning and environmental studies underway.

Panoramica del progetto

The Whakamaru North Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) is a proposed energy storage facility located at the intersection of Whakamaru Road and Sandel Road, with a planned connection to Transpower’s Whakamaru North Substation.

Eku Energy is working with Helios Energy, a NZ-based developer of renewable power generation projects.  

Located at 51 Sandel Road, Mangakino, the 300MW BESS footprint would occupy 2.5 hectares of the 6.9 hectare land parcel. The project is closest to the township of Whakamaru in the Waikato region of the Taupō District.

Una volta ricevuta l'approvazione dello sviluppo, negoziamo i contratti con i fornitori e gli acquirenti e garantiamo il finanziamento del progetto prima della chiusura finanziaria.

Current Status
3. Costruzione

We mobilise to site for ground-breaking and start building the project.

Current Status
4. Fase di esercizio

Now the BESS is ready to deliver additional storage capacity to the grid and is managed by a team to ensure it operates as intended.

Current Status
5. Dismissione

After 20+ years of its intended operational life, the BESS is decommissioned and the site is restored.
