Genesis Energy Limited has announced a major step forward in its energy transition plans with the delivery of a large transformer to Huntly Power Station. This marks the first stage of a project to build a battery system at the site, with a capacity of up to 400 MW targeted by FY35 as part of the company’s Gen35 strategy. The new battery system is designed to support New Zealand’s increasingly renewable electricity supply by providing flexible backup power during periods when hydro, solar, and wind generation are low, helping to ensure a reliable and secure energy supply.
